The quest for obtaining conjugated oligothiophene-containing molecules with narrower HOMO-LUMO gaps and higher oxidation and reduction potentials is the subject of this study. Molecules containing the bithiophene tetraoxide (2) and the terthiophene hexaoxide (3) moieties were prepared and studied. T...
