2,2′-[2,5-Bis(hex­yloxy)-1,4-phenyl­ene]dithio­phene

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₆H₃₄O₂S₂, comprises one half-mol­ecule located on an inversion centre. The thio­phene groups are twisted relative to the benzene ring, making a dihedral angle of 5.30 (7)°, and the n-hexyl groups are in a fully extended conformation. In the crystal, there are short C—H...π contacts involving the thio­phene groups.

1,4-Dibromo-2,5-dibut­oxy­benzene

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₄H₂₀Br₂O₂, contains one half-mol­ecule located on an inversion centre. The mol­ecule is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation from the best plane of the non-H atoms of 0.054 (2) Å for the O atoms. The but­oxy group adopts a fully extended all-trans conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected via C—Br...O halogen bonds [Br...O = 3.2393 (19) Å] into a two-dimensional corrugated network in the bc plane.
