          Abstract

          Several series of novel substituted thienothiophene derivatives were synthesized by reacting the synthone 1 with different reagents. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by means of different spectroscopic methods such as IR, NMR, mass spectrometry and by elemental analyses. The new compounds displayed significant activity against both Gram-positive and Gram negative bacteria, in addition to fungi. Molecular docking and POM analyses show the crucial role and impact of substituents on bioactivity and indicate the unfavorable structural parameters in actual drug design: more substitution doesn’t guaranty more efficiency in bioactivity.

          Stable polythiophene semiconductors incorporating thieno[2,3-b]thiophene.

          This work describes a new design methodology that allows the preparation of air stable, semiconducting thiophene polymers with high charge carrier mobilities. The incorporation of thieno[2,3-b]thiophene into a polythiophene backbone introduces cross-conjugated double bonds that disfavor full delocalization, leading to high ionization potential in comparison to a fully conjugated polythiophene, with no reduction in charge carrier mobility. The resulting solution processable polymers exhibit charge carrier mobilities up to 0.15 cm2/V s and on/off ratios greater than 105 when measured in air. Transistors exhibit lifetimes of several months in air with no encapsulation necessary.

              Alkylsubstituted thienothiophene semiconducting materials: structure-property relationships.

              A family of conjugated polymers with fused structures consisting of three to five thiophene rings and with the same alkyl side chains has been synthesized as a means to understand structure-property relationships. All three polymers showed well-extended conjugation through the polymer backbone. Ionization potentials (IP) ranged from 5.15 to 5.21 eV; these large values are indicative of their excellent oxidative stability. X-ray diffraction and AFM studies suggest that the polymer with the even number of fused thiophene rings forms a tight crystalline structure due to its tilted side chain arrangement. On the other hand, the polymers with the odd number of fused thiophene rings packed more loosely. Characterization in a field-effect transistor configuration showed that the mobility of the polymer with the even number of rings is 1 order of magnitude higher than its odd-numbered counterparts. Through this structure-property study, we demonstrate that proper design of the molecules and properly arranged side chain positions on the polymer backbone can greatly enhance polymer electronic properties.
