π-Conjugated rod-like molecules have proven to be powerful candidates for the generation of well-defined nanostructures with interesting optical and optoelectrical properties. Their synthesis, however, turns out to be rather complex in some cases. Here, we have optimized the synthesis of oligomers consisting of thiophene and phenylene groups with three or four aromatic units using a direct arylation approach, which allows us to use cheap starting materials and to minimize the number of reaction steps considerably.

Oligo-p-phenylenes have proven to be versatile building blocks for the generation of self-assembled nanoaggregates with interesting optical properties via vapor deposition on solid supports. Preliminary studies have shown that both the properties and the morphologies of these aggregates can be influenced by the introduction of functional groups. To this end, we have developed general approaches to the synthesis of symmetrically and unsymmetrically 1,4?-substituted p-quaterphenylenes through the application of a reliable Suzuki cross-coupling strategy.
