We developed an iterative synthetic method for oligo-aryl compounds using an organosilicon-based palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction. Aryl compounds containing a benzyloxy(diisopropyl)silyl group (masked Si group) had sufficient chemical stability, and the unmasking step proceeded in a high yield under mild conditions. Both of the key unmasking/coupling steps required no strict anhydrous or degassed conditions. The developed procedure was used for the synthesis of thiophene-based organic dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells.
