A convenient approach has been developed to prepare polyfluorobiphenyl by Pd(OAc) 2 /PCy 3 ‐catalyzed direct arylation of polyfluoroarenes with aromatic halides in the presence of Cs 2 CO 3 as base and toluene as solvent. In most cases, the desired arylated products of aromatic bromides were obtained in good to excellent yield at 80°C, and aryl chlorides also gave modest to good yields of arylated products at 110°C. According to this efficient C―C bondforming method, polyfluorobiphenyl liquid crystal compounds were prepared by Pd‐catalyzed direct arylation reactions of polyfluoroarenes with long alkyl chain substituted aryl bromides in 62–96% yield.
