摘要：

Dithienyl polyenes with up to 10 double bonds have been synthesized by Wittig condensation. The thienyl end groups were substituted in the beta and beta' positions with butyl groups, resulting in greatly enhanced polyene solubility in common solvents. Oxidative doping of the polyene series with SbCl5, in methylene dichloride solution produced extremely stable bipolaron-like dications. Preliminary evaluation of the third-order optical nonlinearity of both the neutral and doped species by degenerate four-wave mixing confirms previous predictions of bipolaronic enhancement of chi((3)), the third-order susceptibility.
