Abstract

Alternating cooligomers of 5 pyrrole (P) and thiophene (T) units with a PTPTP sequence and carboxylic telechelic groups in α, α′-position are supposed to provide a low band gap and might be incorporated into degradable polymers. In this study we explored whether such new α, α′-ester linked π-conjugated alternating electron rich PTPTP cooligomers of defined size could be created following a Stille coupling synthesis pathway. The obtained ...
