Chain Growth Mechanism for Regioregular Nickel-Initiated Cross-Coupling Polymerizations
Abstract
Poly(3-alkylthiophenes) are conducting polymers that have good solubility, environmental stability, and proc-essability.1 The synthesis of regioregular polythiophenes has produced defect-free, structurally homogeneous, head-to-tail coupled poly(alkylthiophenes) (HT-PATs) that have greatly improved electronic and photonic properties over regiorandom analogues.2,3 Regioregular polythiophenes have led to a multitude of important and novel nano- and microscale electronic materials and devices.4-7 Very recently, we have developed an end-group functionalization methodology of HT-PATs that allows for the synthesis of a plethora of well-defined block copolymers that form nanowires with high electri-cal conductivity.7 Here, we have discovered that the nickel-initiated regioregular polymerization of alkyl-

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
