Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>The effect of solvent on the polymerization of 3‐hexylthiophene with FeCl₃ was evaluated using time‐dependent partial fluorescence yield X‐ray absorption fine structure measurements. FeCl₃ acts as a catalyst when the reaction is performed in CHCl₃, whereas it behaves as an oxidant in hexane. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj2c0sk6kg" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
