Abstract

Abstract Starting from N-hexylphenothiazine, a versatile construction kit of brominated and borylated phenothiazines can be easily prepared by a sequence of bromination, bromo– lithium exchange/borylation, and Suzuki coupling. Subsequent Suzuki arylation of the building blocks gives soluble, monodisperse, and structurally well defined oligophenothiazines in good yields. The molecular weights at the peak maximum (M p), ...
