title: Directional stack exchange along oriented oligothiophene stacks.
abstract: Directional growth of π-basic oligothiophene stacks on solid substrates is achieved by self-organizing, surface-initiated disulfide exchange polymerization. Successful addition of co-axial π-acidic stacks by templated hydrazone exchange provides general access to multicomponent architectures of unique complexity.
