Molecular wires containing p-phenylene sulfide units were synthesized. They could be used in material sciences and in supramolecular chemistry. Wires having 2 to 6 phenyl rings were functionalized at one end by an SH or Sh-le group, and at the other end, by an OH, OMe or OiPr groups. Formation of Ar-S bonds in the chain was achieved by Pd- or Cu-catalyzed couplings of aromatic thiols with aromatic halides. Conditions for a clean chemoselective deprotection of thiols from thiomethyl groups were developed. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
