Three types of aromatic polyketones bearing tetrakis(nonafluorobutyl)-pterphenylene units were successfully synthesized via nucleophilic aromatic substitution polymerization. In particular, high-molecular-weight polymers were obtained in DMAc. These polymers have water and oil repellency, good thermal stability, and excellent solubility in typical organic solvents such as MEK, THF, CHCl3, and DMAc.
