The reorganization energy and the spectroscopic properties of 2,6-bis(5'-hexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2'- yl)naphthalene (DH-TNT) and 2,6-bis(5'-hexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2'-yl)anthracene (DH-TAT), which are composed of an acene unit and alkylated thienothiophene on both sides, as organic materials for display devices were calculated and the results were compared with experimental values. The lower reorganization energy of the DH-TAT over the DH-TNT calculated by the density functional theory is attributed to a smaller vibrational distortion because of the heavier building block of DH-TAT, and it shows a good field effect performance over the DH-TNT. The calculated spectra and the other spectroscopic characteristic of the compounds are well consistent with those of observed results.

During the development of low band-gap organic materials(p-type semiconducting organic compounds) for organic solar cells, an oligomer consisting of 2,5-dioctyloxyphenylene(OP), 3-hexylthiophene(HT), and 2,3-dimethylthieno[ 3,4-b]pyrazine(TP) as repeat units, oligo(OP-HT-TP), was synthesized. The oligomer was amorphous in nature in the temperature range studied, and well soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform. The maximum absorption wavelength was 716 nm in solid state. The band-gap and HOMO/LUMO energy levels of oligo(OP-HT-TP) were measured to be 1.20 eV and -5.27/4.04 eV, respectively. However, the absorbance of the oligomer at maximum absorption wavelength was less than one fifth of that of poly(3-hexylthiophene) which has been most frequently used in fabrication of organic solar cells.

Bioisostere approach has been shown to be useful to augment potency or to modify certain physiological properties of a lead compound. Based upon well documented bioisosterism, an isosteric replacement of benzene ring of 4-hydroxy-2-quinolone compound (L-695902) with a thiophene moiety was carried out to prepare the title compounds, 4-hydroxy-6-oxo-6,7-dihydro-thieno[2,3-b] pyrimidines 15. The resulting bioisosteric compounds 15 were evaluated for their antagonistic activity (birding assay) for NMDA receptor glycine site.
