Thiophene S-oxides: orbital energies and electrochemical properties

Chemical Communications Pub Date: 2000-02-29 DOI: 10.1039/A909390G

Abstract

Ab initio calculations and experimental oxidation and reduction potentials show that the functionalization of thiophene to the corresponding S-oxide leads to only a minor change in ionization potential but to a dramatic increase in the electron affinity.
