Independent of the chain length are the optical and redox chemical properties of the oligomers 1 , because the formally continuous π conjugation in them is interrupted by the meta ‐phenylene units. This is valid for neutral as well as for ionic systems. The charge localization on a stilbene unit causes extremely long wavelength “intervalence” bands in the UV/VIS spectra of the radical ions of these compounds.
