✦ Synopsis
A high-yield synthesis toward 5,5 -bis(silyl)-functionalized 3,3 -dibromo-2,2 -dithiophenes with very efficient work-up procedure is presented. The molecular structures of two silyl functionalized dibromo-dithiophenes in the solid state have been determined to investigate the structural influences of different functional groups on the degree of π -conjugation within the dithiophene moieties, as well as their packing properties. The planar alignment of the tert-butyldimethylsilyl-functionalized dibromo-dithiophene shows a significantly higher degree of conjugation of the π -system with a more favorable molecular packing than the skewed arrangement of the triisopropylsilyl-substituted species.
