title: Synthesis of 3,4-ethylenedioxyselenophene (EDOS): a novel building block for electron-rich pi-conjugated polymers.
abstract: A multistep synthesis of the electron-rich 3,4-ethylenedioxyselenophene (EDOS) monomer is described. The electrochemical properties as well as the electropolymerization of EDOS are presented. [structure: see text]
