Procedure

2-bromo-3-decanyldithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]thiophene (92) (4.16 g, 0.01 mol) is mixed with 1-decyne (3.6 g, 0.026 mol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.58 g, 0.5 mmol) and copper(I) iodide (0.19 g, 1.0 mmol) in triethylamine (80 mL). This mixture is bubbled with nitrogen for 5 minutes and then heated to 130° C. under argon for 16 hours. Triethylamine is evaporated and hexane (150 mL) is added. The mixture is filtered to remove solid salts and the organic layer is washed with 1M hydrochloric acid (50 mL) and brine (50 mL), then dried over MgSO4. The solvent is removed in vacuo, and the residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane to yield the target compound (3.87 g, 93.0% yield). 1HNMR (CD2Cl2): δ 7.36 (d, 1H), 7.30 (d, 1H), 2.82 (t, 2H), 2.49 (t, 2H), 1.63-1.27 (m, 28H), 0.88 (m, 6H).
