Abstract
Bithiophenes, when used as starting material for polythiophene synthes is, offer advantages over corresponding thiophenes. Polymerization pro ceeds at lower oxidation potentials and lower monomer concentration an d gives polymers with higher yield and better regularity as shown by c yclic voltammetry and H-1 NMR spectroscopy.
