Abstract
Oligothienylenevinylenes/C~60~ dyads n‐C and triads n‐C~2~ are studied by electrospray mass spectrometry. A clear correlation is observed between the nature of the charged species detected by mass spectrometry, i.e. protonated molecule [M + H], ^+^ cation radical M^+·^ and dication M^++^, and the oxidation potentials of the molecules. Moreover, under defined solubility conditions, mass spectrometry provides conclusive evidences for the reversible dimerization of cation‐radicals of n‐C~2~ compounds.
