Fluorenes have been synthesized through an efficient novel Pd‐catalyzed tandem cross‐coupling reaction; these substrates are fascinating building blocks found in organic photoelectric materials. The position of the substituent on fluorenes could be conveniently tuned by changing the halogen in the ortho ‐halobenzyl bromide substrates when coupled with various arylboronic acids. This newly developed synthetic approach could achieve the potential diversity in fluorene‐based molecular architectures.
