General description

3-Thiopheneacetic acid acts as monocarboxylate ligand and forms oxo-carboxylate bridged digadolinium(III) complexes. Electrochemical oxidation of 3-thiopheneacetic acid in dry acetonitrile leads to the formation of a conducting polymeric film of poly (3-thiopheneacetic acid).

Application

3-Thiopheneacetic acid was used in:
  • one-step, size control synthesis of gold nanoparticles
  • in the preparation of gold nanoparticles capped with 3-thiopheneacetic acid (3-TAA) via borohydride reduction

Two new digadolinium(III) complexes with monocarboxylate ligands, [Gd2(pac)6(H2O)4] (1) and [Gd2(tpac)6(H2O)4] (2) (Hpac = pentanoic acid and Htpac = 3-thiopheneacetic acid), have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. Their structures consist of neutral and
