Procedure

5′,2″:5″,2′″:5′″,2″″-pentathiophene (6TTTTT6) is now discussed. The compound 5′-hexyl-5-tributylstannylbithiophene is prepared from 2′-hexylbithiophene using the procedure described for 2-(tri-n-butylstannyl)-5-(4-n-hexylphenyl)thiophene. A measured 6.25 mmol of this compound, 2.5 mmol of 2,5-dibromothiophene, 145 mg of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium, and 35 mL of toluene are heated just below reflux for three days under nitrogen. The precipitate is successively washed with dilute hydrochloric acid, water, and acetone, and recrystallized from mesitylene with hot filtration.
