    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the synthesis of various α-ω substitutional sexthiophene, which is suitable to solvent casting and very large in solubility with respect to a general organic solvent and use as the semiconductor channel of its organic thin-film field effect transistor. SOLUTION: The soluble sexthiophene having terminal carbons, substituted by various polarity groups, is synthesized, and the polarity groups are phosphonic acid eter and sulfonic acid, phosphonate, carboxylic acid, carboxylate, amine, amide, carbamate, alcohol, etc., and isolated from a terminal thiophene ring by a C1 to C10 methylene group. A film of the mentioned sexthiophene derivative is used as a semiconductor constituent element. Those organic semiconductors are dissolved in general organic solvents and are applied over substrate surfaces by a low-cost low-temperature solution process, such as spin coating, dip coating, and drop casting, and microcontact printing.
