General Description
3,4-Dimethoxythiophene (DMOT) is a monomer and a precursor which can be synthesized by ring closure reaction of 2,3-dimethoxy-1,3-butadiene and sulfur dichloride in hexane medium. It is an oligothiphene that is majorly used in the development of electroactive materials for organic electronics based applications.
