Procedure: The salt either 5 or 6 is dissolved in water and acidified with 1 Molar HCI added slowly dropwise with constant stirring until the solution becomes acidic. Immediately following, thick white precipitate falls out. After filtration, the precipitate is washed with water and air-dried to give 2,5-dicarbethoxy-3,4-dihydroxythiophene (7). The salt either (5, 2.5 grams) or 6 can be alkylated directly or the dihydrothiophene derivative (7) can be suspended in the appropriate 1,2-dihaloalkane or substituted 1,2-dihaloalkane and refluxed for 24 hours in the presence of anhydrous K2CO3 in anhydrous DMF. To prepare EDOT, either 1,2-dicholorethane (commercially available from Aldrich) or 1,2-dibromoethane (commercially from Aldrich) is used. To prepare the various substituted EDOT derivatives the appropriate 1,2-dibromoalkane is used, such as 1-dibromodecane, 1,2-dibromohexadecane (prepared from 1-hexadecene and bromine), 1,2-dibromohexane, other reported 1,2-dibromoalkane derivatives, and the like. The resulting 2,5-dicarbethoxy-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene or 2,5-dicarbethoxy-3,4-alkylenedioxythiophene is refluxed in base, for example 10 percent aqueous sodium hydroxide solution for 1 to 2 hours, and the resulting insoluble material is collected by filtration. This material is acidified with 1 Normal HCI and recrystallized from methanol to produce either 2,5-dicarboxy-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene or the corresponding 2,5-dicarboxy-3,4-alkylenedioxythiophene. The final step to reduce the carboxylic acid functional groups to hydrogen to produce the desired monomer is given in the references above. added slowly dropwise After filtration the precipitate is washed with water air-dried to give 2,5-dicarbethoxy-3,4-dihydroxythiophene (7) To prepare the the resulting insoluble material is collected by filtration recrystallized from methanol
