Reaction Steps

A degassed solution of 490 mg (0.16 mmol) of copper(I) chloride and 906 mg (5 mmol) of 1,10-phenanthroline in 100 ml of toluene is saturated with N2 for 1 h and heated to 130° C. 18 g (50 mmol) of N-[1,1-biphenyl]-4-yl-9,9-dimethyl-9H-fluoren-2-amine and 14 g (50 mmol) of 1-bromo-4-iodobenzene are subsequently added to the solution, which is then heated at 180° C. for 2 h. After cooling, 180 ml of water are added to the mixture, the organic phase is separated off, and the solvent is removed in vacuo. The product is recrystallised from n-hexane.
