We report here that bissilylated oligothiophenes may be selectively oxidized at the thienyl sulfurs by m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) to afford stable S,S-dioxides having alternate aromatic and nonaromatic moieties. These compounds are characterized by enhanced electron delocalization, smaller optical gap, and greater electron affinity than the “fully aromatic” precursors.

Abstract
We report here that bissilylated oligothiophenes may be selectively oxidized at the thienyl sulfurs by m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) to afford stable S,S-dioxides having alternate aromatic and nonaromatic moieties. These compounds are characterized by enhanced electron delocalization, smaller optical gap, and greater electron affinity than the “fully aromatic” precursors.File in questo prodotto:
