Procedure
Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-4,8-dione (1.0 g, 4.54 mmol) and Zn powder (0.659 g, 10.1 mmol) were suspended in ethanol (10 mL). A solution of NaOH (3 g) in water (15 mL) was added. The resulting mixture was heated to reflux for 1 hour, after which 2-hexyldecyl(4-methylbenzenesulfonate) (3.86 g, 9.73 mmol) was added. The reaction was heated to reflux overnight. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and water (50 mL) was added. The reaction was extracted with ether, followed by separation and drying of the organic layer over MgSO4. Solvent was removed and the residue was purified by chromatography (10% dichloromethane in hexanes as eluent). The yield of the 4,8-bis[(2-hexyldecyl)oxy]-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene was 0.80 g (26%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ=7.47 (d, J=2.75, 2H), 7.36 (d, J=2.75, 2H), 4.16 (m, 4H), 1.86 (m, 2H), 1.38-1.65 (m, 48H), 0.86 (m, 12H).
