In this work, monomeric 3-([7]helicen-9-yl)thiophene was synthesized and used for the preparation of a polymeric film by electrosynthesis. The polymer prepared was characterized using Fe(CN)(6)(3-/4-) and Ru(NH3)(6)(3+/2+) redox probes, scanning electron microscopy and vibrational spectroscopy. The electropolymerization approach presented here provides a new option for the immobilization of helicenes onto solid supports.
