Push-pull chromophores are widely used and investigated due to their intrinsic electro-optical and non-linear optical properties that are suitable for a variety of applications. However, the grafting and the control of self-organization of such derivatives onto surfaces have been less considered although this may enhance the pre-cited properties and/or enlarge the scope of their use. In this work we present the stepwise synthesis of a novel non-charged push-pull chromophore modified with a fleeting thioacetate group, and the study of its self-assembling abilities onto a gold surface. Self-assembled dense monolayer formation is clearly demonstrated by electrochemical, XPS and STM measurements. Besides, associated with good film quality a conducting behavior consistent with the structure of the SAM-organized push-pull is also highlighted.

A general scheme for the synthesis of end-functionalized conjugated (E)-vinylthiophene oligomers with liquid crystal and potential second-order non-linear optical properties is described. These push-pull thiophene-containing aromatic molecules show mesogenic properties over different temperature ranges depending on the chain length and the functional end-groups.

Heteroaromatic nonlinear optical compounds, alone, and in combination with a chemically inert medium to provide a combination exhibiting second order nonlinear optical properties, including combinations that dispose a layer of the nonlinear optical compounds on chemically inert substrates, blend guest molecules of the nonlinear optical compounds with a chemically inert host matrix of a thermoplastic polymer, or covalently bond pendant side chains of the nonlinear optical compounds to chemically inert polymers.
