36. 13 C NMR spectroscopy of the resulting polymer demonstrated that hydrogen atoms on the α and α′ positions of the thiophene rings labeled with the letters c and d (Supporting Information) remained after electrochemical polymerization confirming the proposed structure for PDDTP. The related work for alkyl-substituted PDDTP will be published separately.
