doi:10.2174/1570193043403118

Abstract

The four isomers of thienothiophene have long been considered only for academic interest. Their usefulness in material science and biology has led to a renewal of their chemistry. The present paper reports the newest synthetic methods after the first review by Litvinov and Goldfarb in 1976.

Keywords: cyclisation, sulphur, thiophene, material science and thienothiophene
