3´,6´ꢀDi(2ꢀthienyl)ꢀ9,10ꢀdihydroꢀ9,10[1´,2´]ꢀbenzenoanthraꢀ
cene (4). Potassium tertꢀbutoxide (1.12 g, 10 mmol) and anꢀ
thracene (1.0 g, 5.60 mmol) were added under argon to a soluꢀ
tion of compound 1 (X = I, Br, or Cl) (0.5 mmol) in dry toluene
(30 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 140 C for 22 h and
diluted with water (10 mL). The product was extracted from the
organic layer with ethyl acetate (3×10 mL). The combined exꢀ
tracts were washed with water (2×10 mL) and brine (10 mL),
dried over CaCl2, filtered, and evaporated to dryness under reꢀ
duced pressure. The product was separated as a colorless precipꢀ
itate by column chromatography on silica gel with 10% acetone
in hexane as an eluent. Yield 32%, m.p. >250 C. 1H NMR

1ꢀ[2,5ꢀBis(5ꢀbromoꢀ2ꢀthienyl)phenyl]piperidine 5. A solution
of freshly recrystallized 1ꢀbromosuccinimide (0.400 g, 2.27 mmol)
in dry DMF (5 mL) was added dropwise under argon at –20 C
to a solution of compound 3a (0.325 g, 1 mmol) in dry DMF
(10 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at –20 C for 1 h and
at room temperature for 12 h and poured into cooled water
(50 mL). The product was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×30 mL).
The combined extracts were dried with Na2SO4 and concentratꢀ
ed on a rotary evaporator. The residue was purified by column
chromatography on silica gel with 10% ethyl acetate in hexane
as an eluent. Compound 5 was isolated as a colorless crystalline
powder, m.p. 112 C (decomp.). 1H NMR (250 MHz, tetrachloꢀ

Pd2(dba)3 (2—5 mol.%), the P ligand (10 mol.%), a base
(3 mmol), and an appropriate amine (3 mmol) were added under
argon to a solution of 1ꢀiodoꢀ or 1ꢀbromoꢀ2,5ꢀdi(2ꢀthienyl)ꢀ
benzene 1 (0.5 mmol) in dry toluene (10 mL). The reaction
mixture was stirred at 140 C for 22 h and diluted with water
(10 mL). The product was extracted from the organic layer with
ethyl acetate (3×10 mL). The combined extracts were washed
with water (2×10 mL) and brine (10 mL), dried over CaCl2,
filtered, and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The
product was separated by column chromatography on silica gel
with 10% acetone in hexane as an eluent. The physicochemical
and spectroscopic characteristics of the resulting colorless preꢀ
cipitate agree with the literature data.24
Synthesis of compounds 3a—d (general procedure). Potassiꢀ
um tertꢀbutoxide (1.12 g, 10 mmol) (method A) or sodium amide
(0.390 g, 10 mmol) (method B) and an appropriate amine
(5 mmol) were added under argon to a solution of 1ꢀchloroꢀ2,5ꢀ
di(2ꢀthienyl)benzene (1c) (0.276 g, 1 mmol) in dry toluene
(20 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 140 C for 22 h and
diluted with water (10 mL). The product was extracted from the
organic layer with ethyl acetate (3×10 mL). The combined exꢀ
tracts were washed with brine (2×10 mL), dried over CaCl2,
filtered, and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure.
The product as a colorless crystalline or amorphous precipitate
was separated by column chromatography on silica gel with
MeOH—NH4OH—CH2Cl2 (5 : 0.5 : 72) as an eluent.

Poly[(2,2´ꢀbithiopheneꢀ5,5´ꢀdiyl)(2ꢀpiperidinoꢀ1,4ꢀphenylꢀ
ene)] (6). Cyclooctaꢀ1,5ꢀdiene (0.5 mL), 2,2´ꢀbipyridine (0.156 g,
1 mmol), and freshly prepared Ni(COD)225 (1 mmol) were addꢀ
ed under argon to a solution of compound 5 (0.483 g, 1 mmol) in
a mixture of dry DMF (5 mL) and toluene (30 mL). The resultꢀ
ing solution was heated at 90 C for 72 h. The resulting suspenꢀ
sion was filtered and the mother liquor was evaporated to dryꢀ
ness in vacuo. The solid residue was dissolved in dry THF (20 mL)
and reprecipitated with MeOH (5—10 mL). The precipitate of
the polymer was filtered off and washed with MeOH. This proꢀ
cedure was repeated several times for better purification of the
product. The yield of polymer 6 was 0.250 g, violetꢀbrown fibers.
