title: A conjoined thienopyrrole oligomer formed by using DNA as a molecular guide.
abstract: A thienopyrrole oligomer conjoined to DNA was prepared by means of a templated synthesis protocol. The oligomer was formed by reaction, initiated with HRP/H2O2, of thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole monomers attached to cytosine bases. The thienopyrrole oligomer was characterized spectroscopically.
