Homer polycondensation

Triarylamines have been employed in arylene vinylene AB copolymers 38 by Horhold et al. using a Homer polycondensation route of aldehydes and ketones 36 with fois-phosphonate 37 (Scheme 1-12) 164]. Phenylamines have remarkably low redox potentials and their charge transport properties have been investigated extensively [65]. EL devices comprising triarylamines have demonstrated low driving voltages.
