Abstract
The monomeric tetrathiapentalene precursor 1 can be polymerized oxidatively in one step to the charged vinylogous tetrathiafulvalene derivative 3, The polymerization of 1 occurs in consecutive steps via radical intermediates. Reduction of 3 gave the neutral, soluble polymer 4 which comprises approxi mately 50 monomeric units (M-w = 20000).
