A novel zirconium-mediated synthesis of substituted thiophene-fused acenes is described. A variety of substituents, such as alkyl, aryl, silyl, iodo, and alkynyl groups, could be introduced to the acene skeleton by this method. Moreover, the double coupling with tetraiodothiophene gave the corresponding dianthrathiophene.
