Five oligo(2,5-thienyleneethynylene) series (OTE, n = 1–5), namely the push-pull substituted compounds 1b-5b and 1c-5c, the purely donor substituted compounds 1a-5a and two precursor series with protected and deprotected ethynyl end-groups, respectively, were obtained by a convergent synthetic strategy. The extension of the conjugated chromophores in the donor-acceptor OTE (DAOTE) series is superimposed by an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), which decreases with an increasing number, n, of repeat units. The overall effect is studied by the convergence of the UV/Vis absorption maxima λmax (n) → λ∞ for n → ∞.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
