The development of structure–property relationships for monodisperse oligomers has been
extremely useful to rationalize the properties of high molecular weight linear π‐conjugated …

This review describes different synthetic strategies towards sequence‐defined,
monodisperse macromolecules, which are built up by iterative approaches and lead to …

With the Fritsch− Buttenberg− Wiechell rearrangement as a primary synthetic route, a series
of conjugated, triisopropylsilyl end-capped polyynes containing 2− 10 acetylene units has …

Abstract Three series of differently 3, 5‐disubstituted α, ω‐diphenylpolyynes Ar‐(C≡ C) n‐Ar
(n= 2, 4, 6, 8, 10) were synthesized under optimized Cadiot–Chodkiewicz conditions …

Scientists have sought for over two decades to incorporate the necessary attributes of
transparency, stability, and high nonlinear susceptibilities into optimized organic or …

1, 2-Diethynylethenes (hex-3-ene-1, 5-diynes, DEEs) have found wide interest as potential
antitumor agents in medicinal chemistry1 and as redox active or chromophoric units in …

Polyynes represent a unique class of conjugated organic compounds. The third-order
nonlinear optical response of polyynes has been extensively modeled theoretically, and it is …

This Account deals with the synthesis and characterization of monodisperse soluble
oligothienylenevinylenes with chain lengths up to 100 Å. The chain length dependence of …

Molecular rods are of considerable importance for nanoscience and nanotechnology. They
have been used as elementary functional building blocks for the construction of …

Für das Ermitteln von Struktur‐Funktions‐Beziehungen, deren Kenntnis zum Verständnis
der Eigenschaften hochmolekularer linear π‐konjugierter Polymere beiträgt, haben sich …
