Optoelectronic display devices have gained an important role in the modern world. Digital displays based on organic light-emitting diodes are taking one of leading places among other due to high contrast and high-quality color gamut. The relative novelty technology is reason for insufficient number researched materials use layers diodes. This paper analyzes properties molecular structures thiop...

A three-dimensional microporous metal-organic framework, Zn(5)(BTA)(6)(TDA)(2)·15DMF·8H(2)O (1; HBTA = 1,2,3-benzenetriazole; H(2)TDA = thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid), comprising pentanuclear [Zn(5)] cluster units, was obtained through an one-pot solvothermal reaction of Zn(NO(3))(2), 1,2,3-benzenetriazole, and thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylate. The activated 1 displays type-I N(2) gas sorption beh...

A novel family of thiophene-decorated phthalocyanines (M-TPcs) was efficiently synthesized, during which the key intermediate of these compounds was purified through a chemical approach. In the optimized geometries of M-TPcs, the peripherally linked thiophene rings are tilted from the Pc core, which oppose aggregation considering the mutual steric hindrance. However, Zn-TPc formed J-aggregates ...

The aim of this review is to give an update on current progress in the synthesis, properties and applications of thiophene-based conjugated systems bearing tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) units. We focus mostly on the synthesis of poly- and oligothiophenes with TTF moieties fused to the thiophene units of the conjugated backbone either directly or via a dithiin ring. The electrochemical behaviour of t...

Unusual blue shift of the absorption maxima of two nitronyl nitroxide attached diarylethene through phenyl units (DAE-phe-NN) with increasing number of phenyl units is examined by time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The extended π-conjugation between nitronyl nitroxide and diarylethene is rather suppressed by the bridge phenyl units. In comparison, the red shift found in two nitro...

The crystal structure of the title compound, C29H16F6N2S2·0.5CHCl3, consists of mol-ecules with disordered perfluoro-cyclo-pentene rings [occupancy ratio 0.685 (3):0.315 (3)] and close F⋯F contacts (in the range 2.45-2.73 Å) between mol-ecules. The short contacts are associated with the disorder. The dihedral angle between thiophene rings is 57.44 (8)°. The 5-(4-cyano-phen-yl)-3-methyl-2-thieny...

A one-pot synthesis of 2,6-dibromodithieno[3,2-b;2',3'-d]thiophene (dibromo-DTT, 4) was developed. A key step was bromodecarboxylation of DTT-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, obtained by saponification of the diester 1. The donor-acceptor dye DAHTDTT (13), based on a central 2,6-bis[2'-(3'-hexylthienyl)]dithieno[3,2-b;2',3'-d]thiophene core (9), was prepared and incorporated in a dye-sensitized solar cel...

Conjugated polymer photocatalysts have received extensive attention in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution owing to their tunable molecular structures and electronic properties. Herein, we developed three donor-acceptor (D-A) type thiophene-containing narrow-band-gap conjugated polymers with pyrene as a donor different fused-thiophene derivatives acceptors via direct C-H arylation co...

A novel copper(i)-catalyzed tandem addition/cycloisomerization reaction of 1-phenylsulfonylalkylidenethiiranes with terminal alkynes for the convergent assembly of 2-(alpha-phenylsulfonylalkyl)-thiophenes is reported, which could directly assemble various functional groups incorporated into the thiophene ring.
