Abstract: | An amphiphilic dithiafulvene oligomer was synthesized by cycloaddition polymerization of aldothioketene generated from 1,4‐diethynylbenzene and a PEO‐grafted phenylacetylene (feed ratio 5/1). The degree of polymerization was determined as 6 by 1H NMR analysis. The aggregation behavior of the oligomer was studied in the mixed solvent of D2O and DMSO‐d6. Effective charge‐transfer interaction of the oligomer and hydrophilic methyl viologen was observed in an aqueous solution. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
