The regiospecific total synthesis and characterization of anti-isomers of 2,8-dialkylanthradithiophenes are described. The "anti" structure of the ADT derivatives is demonstrated by 13 C NMR as well as single crystal X-ray diffraction.

Synthesis, isolation, and characterization of derivatives of an anthrathiophene dimer (TOTBAT) and of anthradithiophene oligomers (ADTO), possessing octylthiophene units on their backbone, are described. These semiconductors are prepared through oxidative copper(II) chloride coupling. The spectroscopic properties and stability of these newly synthesized semiconductors were evaluated and supported by quantum-chemical calculations.

A convenient route to 2-alkynyl-3,3-dichloropyrrolidines was described by addition of terminal acetylenes to 2,2,4-trichloroaldimines using In(OTf)3 as a catalyst. In the presence of a base these pyrrolidines were transformed into 3-chloropyrroles.
