Synthesis procedure towards monodisperse oligo(1,4-phenylene ethynylene)s through Sonogashira cross-coupling with the building block 1 and subsequent deprotection. The approach in solution yields the protected monomer 2, the deprotected monomer 3, the respective versions of the dimers 4 and 5, the trimers 6 and 7, the tetramers 8 and 9 as well as the pentamers 10 and 11. Cleavage from the resin in SPOS results in the azide functionalised monomer 12.
