42. We note however, that a trace amount of HBr cannot initiate the SS polymerization of DBEDOT at room temperature, ruling out the possible acid catalysis of the polymerization.

46. All optimized structures were found to be minima by frequency analysis.
47. In addition, our calculations show that the "dimer" of DBEDOT has coplanar thiophene rings, in contrast to dibromobisthiophene, which has a twist angle of 21°.

49. The stack axis is parallel to the crystallographic b axis for DBEDOT and DIEDOT, and to the a axis for DCEDOT.
50. DBEDOT: shortest S⋯S is 3.56 Å (double vdW radius 3.6 Å), S⋯Br is 3.62 Å (sum of vdW radii 3.65 Å), O⋯H are 2.47, 2.62, and 2.69 Å (sum of vdW radii 2.9 A). DIEDOT shortest S⋯S is 3.49 Å (double vdW radius 3.6 A), S⋯I is 3.81 Å (sum of vdW radii 3.86 A), O⋯H are 2.46 and 2.60 Å.
51. This structure consists of two unequivalent DBEDOT molecules, belonging to different rows.
52. The greenish shading of the flexible substrate in Figure 14 is due to bromination of the upper layer of commercial ink-jet transparency used in this experiment with excess of bromine (gives yellow color).
