Carbazole-based ladder polymers

Furthermore, it was possible to obtain carbazole-based ladder polymers via the polymerization of two different carbazole units, one containing boronic esters and the other bearing benzoyl groups at the 3- and 6-positions in order to close the rings afterward (P39) (Scheme 15) [50]. It is also pos-...
