title: Making organometallic molecular wires via oxidative ligand coupling.
abstract: 1e-Oxidation of heteroaryl-metal complexes, M-het-H (het-H(2) = thiophene, pyrrole, and furan) causes coupling at the heteroaryl moiety to furnish, after deprotonation, the organometallic molecular wire with the doubly elongated linker, M-het-het-M.
