摘要
Methods for synthesizing pure, monosubstituted alpha-terthiophenes, and selectively coupling their lithiated derivatives to produce disubstituted sexithiophenes were developed. The terthiophenes were made via carbonyl intermediates that could be readily chromatographed. The coupling reagents were selected to minimize chlorination and lithium-hydrogen exchange. The mobility of the dihexylated hexamer in thin-film transitors was 0.03 cm(2)/Vs, in agreement with the literature. The on/off ratio was much higher than the literature, due to improved purity. Use of hexylthio as a substituent gave highly conductive, poorly performing transistors.
