General description

3-Methoxythiophene is a thiophene. The intramolecular and intermolecular geometries of crystals of 3-methoxythiophene were studied. Spectroscopic studies of bipolarons derived from oligomerized 3-methoxythiophene in solution has been reported. The electropolymerization of 3-methoxythiophene on Pt and Fe electrodes in an aqueous micellar medium containing sodium dodecyl sulfate and 10-3M bithiophene has been reported. Thin polymer films of 3-methoxythiophene at the cathode in a direct current discharge have been prepared.

Novel optically active oligothiophenes bearing electron-donating chiral side chains have been prepared by synthetic methods suitable to achieve regioregular head-to-tail and head-to-head/tail-to-tail derivatives. In particular, the chiral (S)-(2-methyl)butyl moiety was linked at position 3 of the thiophene ring through heteroatoms

The intramolecular and intermolecular geometries of six thiophenes carrying oxygen-containing substituents have been determined. Crystals of 2-methoxythiophene and 3-methoxythiophene were grown in situ on a diffractometer from liquid samples. The 2-methoxy group introduces significant distortions to the thiophene nucleus and
