Synthesis of Mixed Thiophene/Furan Oligomers by Stille Coupling

A. Hucke, Michael P. Cava

Abstract

A series of mixed thiophene/furan oligomers have been synthesized via organometallic Stille coupling. In some cases, beside cross-coupling products, symmetrical coupling products were isolated. Oligomers consisting of up to 11 rings were obtained. Attempts to prepare macrocycles with 10 thiophene and furan units were not successful.
