Abstract
Fluorene-based 3D-grid-FTPA was synthesised with a total yield of 55% via the one-pot formation of six C(sp2)-C(sp3) bonds through a BF3·Et2O-mediated Friedel-Crafts reaction of A2-type bifluorene tertiary alcohol (BIOH) and two B3-type triphenylamines. At the same time, Un-grid-FTPA (2.7%) and 2D-grid-FTPA (5.6%) were obtained as by-products from this synthesis method. In addition, the effect of stereoisomers of BIOH was evaluated to demonstrate that Rac-BIOH is a better A2-type building block to prepare 3D-grid-FTPA in a relatively high yield. Furthermore, 3D-grid-FTPA showed excellent chemical, thermal, and photo-stabilities.
