Abstract π-Conjugated thienylene [BOND] phenylene oligomers with fluorinated and dialkoxylated phenylene fragments have been designed and prepared to understand the interactions in fragment orbitals, the influence of the substituents (F, OMe) on the HOMO– LUMO gap, and the role of intramolecular non-covalent cumulative interactions in the construction of π-conjugated nanostructures. Their strong conjugation was also evidenced ...
