A heterocyclic oligomer, thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (TT) end-capped famous 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) unit and their electrosynthesized polymer P(TT-EDOT-TT) have been facilely achieved. To in-depth understand the effects of structural modification on physico-chemical properties and electrochromic performances of monomers and/or polymers, the absorption spectroscopy, electrochemistry, micromorphology, and spectroelectrochemistry were systematically studied. In contrast to TT and EDOT, TT-EDOT-TT possessed extended π-conjugation and narrowed band gap in molecular level. Through carefully comparison with PTT, it has been found that the electrochromic performances of P(TT-EDOT-TT) film exhibited much higher optical contrast (69%, while 3% for PTT in the near-infrared region) and superior coloring efficiency (255.3 cm2 C?1, while 36.8 cm2 C?1 for PTT), and switching times (within 1 s, while more than 9 s for PTT). Notably, P(TT-EDOT-TT) film can achieve the mutual conversion between RGB primary colors (red–green–blue) under variable voltages, which hold quite promising for display applications.

Fourteen new D-π-A push-pull chromophores based on two isomeric thienothiophene donors and seven acceptors of various electronic natures have been designed and conveniently synthesized. In contrast to known thienothiophene push-pull molecules, the prepared small chromophores proved to be organic materials with easily tunable thermal, electrochemical and (non)linear optical properties. It has also been shown that small structural variation may result in significantly improved/varied fundamental properties. Very detailed structure-property relationships were elucidated within the systematically developed series of push-pull molecules, which may serve as a useful guide in designing new D-π-A molecules based on fused thiophene scaffolds.

The free fatty acid receptor GPR40 is predominantly expressed in pancreatic β-cells and enhances insulin secretion in a glucose dependent manner. Therefore, GPR40 agonists are possible novel insulin secretagogues with reduced or no risk of hypoglycemia for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Chemically and structurally diverse GPR40 agonists with high safety are pursued for the clinical development of GPR40-based pharmacotherapeutics. Herein we report our design and discovery of a new chemotype of GPR40 agonists free of the typical phenylpropanoic acid scaffold. The thiophen-2-ylpropanoic acid containing GPR40 modulators functioned as full agonists with high-efficacy response (Emax) and reduced lipophilicity. Significantly, the lead compound in this series, (R)-7k, exhibited more potent in vitro glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and in vivo glucose-lowering effects (10 mg/kg, po) than the GPR40 partial agonist TAK-875, which was once in phase III clinical trials, and high selectivity over the relevant receptors GPR120 and PPARγ.
