Abstract
The title compound dl-biTOT (1, dl-2,2′,3,3′-tetrahydro-2,2′-bithieno[3,2-b][1,4]oxathiine) was prepared in a five-step synthesis using cheap and readily available starting materials, with an overall yield of 50%. Compound 1 is believed to display interesting and unique properties as a building block in oligomer and polymer applications in the rapidly growing field of organic semiconductors. A new and superior method to oxidize dithiothreitol (Cleland’s reagent), that operates rapidly and cleanly on a multigram scale is also reported.
