We report the synthesis of block and alternating thiophene/phenylene co- oligomers that is based either on the Suzuki coupling reaction or on the Grignard reaction. These reaction schemes enable us to obtain the target compounds at reasonably high yields.

The syntheses by transition metal coupling reactions of a large number of oligomers constructed from benzene and thiophene rings are described. The first use of arylcadmium chlorides for such coupling reactions is reported. The routes chosen allow for rational variation in the modes of linkage, the substitution and the proportions of the two units. The benzene and thiophene rings are always joined in a known order and may bear a wide variety of regularly spaced functional groups. Additionally the shape of the oligomers may be varied at will. In all cases p-type doping with iodine or ferric chloride leads to large enhancements in conductivity.
