“…339 Cyclic voltammetry measurements of 2.254 showed three oxidation waves, where the first two were assigned to the redox processes of the ferrocene and the third wave to the terthiophene moiety. This result suggested a strong electronic interaction between the two terminal ferrocene units, indicating charge transfer between the two units through the terthiophene.…”

Amaresh Mishra (right) received his Ph.D. degree in 2000 from the Sambalpur University, India, under the coguidance of Prof. G. B. Behera and Prof. R. K. Behera, working on dye-surfactant interactions in microheterogeneous media. He started his postdoctoral research career in 1999 at the University of South Florida, Tampa, and subsequently at the University of Akron, Ohio, working with Prof. G. R. Newkome, where he gained knowledge in the area of supramolecular and dendrimer chemistry. Later, he joined the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, in 2002 as a Visiting Fellow working with Prof. N. Periasamy, where he was involved in the synthesis and photophysical studies of organic light emitting materials. In 2005, he joined in the group of Prof. Peter Ba ¨uerle, University of Ulm, Germany, as an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow. His present research interests are centered on chemistry of functional oligothiophenes, donor-acceptor-based conjugated dyes, and metal complexes toward applications in solar energy conversion and molecular electronic and photonic devices. Chang-Qi Ma (left) received his bachelor's degree in chemistry from Beijing Normal University in 1998. In 2003 he obtained his Ph.D. degree at the Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing with Professor B.-W. Zhang. After that he was a postdoctoral research assistant at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, U.K., with Dr. G. Cooke, until he joined the research group of Prof. P. Ba ¨uerle at the University of Ulm in 2004 as an Alexander von Humboldt fellow, where he is currently a research associate. His main research interests focus on the design and synthesis of novel π-conjugated organic materials for the application in organic electronics, e.g. organic solar cells.Peter Ba ¨uerle (center) received his Ph.D. in organic chemistry from University of Stuttgart (Germany, 1985) working with Prof. F. Effenberger. After a postdoctoral year at MIT, Boston, Massachusetts, in the group of Prof. M. S. Wrighton, he carried out independent research at the University of Stuttgart and received his habilitation (1994). After being Professor of Organic Chemistry at the University of Wu ¨rzburg (Germany, 1994-95), he became Director of the Institute for Organic Chemistry II and Advanced Materials at the University of Ulm (Germany, since 1996). Current research interests of the group include development of novel organic semiconducting and conducting materials, in particular, conjugated poly-and oligothiophenes. Synthetic strategies and new reactions for their functionalization, structure-property relationships, self-assembling properties, and applications in electronic devices, in particular organic solar cells, are investigated. Results have been published in about 200 peer-reviewed scientific papers, 3 book chapters, and 7 patents. For his work in the field of plastic electronics he was awarded with the Rene ´Descartes Prize of the European Union (2000). Guest Professorships at the University of Osaka (Japan, 2002), U...

“…Several molecules with Fc-oligothiophene chains were synthesized, with Fc complex at one end of the chain 53ab or at both ends 53cde, as models for a molecular wire [407,408]. The distribution of the electronic density after their electrochemical oxidation was studied.…”

“…The multi‐step oxidation process derived from the multi‐ferrocene system can be controlled by the π‐conjugated spacer connecting ferrocene fragments due to the fact that the strength of the electronic communication between the mixed‐valent metal centers strongly depends on the electronic nature and length of the linking π‐conjugated spacer. Thus, there have been investigations of multi‐ferrocene derivatives bridged by a wide variety of π‐conjugated spacers such as aromatics (eg, benzene), heteroaromatics (eg, pyrrole, phosphole, furan, thiophene), and their oligomers (eg, oligopyrrole:, oligofuran, oligothiophene).…”

We have designed and synthesized tetraferrocenyloligothiophenes, namely, 4,4′5,5′‐tetraferrocenyl‐2,2′‐bithiophene (TFBT) and 4,4″,5,5″‐tetraferrocenyl‐2,2′:5′,2″‐terthiophene (TFTT). By using an electrochemical technique, we revealed that tetraferrocenyloligothiophenes show multi‐redox reactions derived from four ferrocene fragments and one α‐oligothiophene spacer, and a number of the thiophene rings in the α‐oligothiophene spacer can be attuned to the redox potentials and the multiple electron transfer process. Consequently, we have succeeded in the construction of different types of multi‐step multi‐electron redox systems by constructing four organometallic redox‐active ferrocenes and one organic redox‐active α‐oligothiophene differing in the number of thiophene rings.
