Significance
The synthesis of α-oligofurans with n = 5-9 is described. These π-conjugated molecules are of high interest in the design of solar cells, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). Long α-oligofurans had been considered unstable in the past regarding their electron-rich nature and have not been as extensively studied as their thiophene analogues. However, the newly described α-oligofurans show several advantages, such as higher solubility, better packing in the solid state, higher fluorescence, and greater rigidity.
