An essentially linear conjugated thiourea system provides wide range of electronic properties as they consist of rigid π-systems on their structures. This study reported the synthetic, characterization and theoretical evaluation of molecular wire candidate bearing alkoxy thiourea derivative featuring methylbenzene head group. It was applied as dopant in Carboxymethyl-Cellulose (CMC) solution in order to form a conductive biodegradable thin film. According to the conductivity result, the developed system can be developed as electrical conductor as proven via both experimental and theoretical studies. Therefore, this type of A-ArC(O)NHC(S)NHAr-D molecular framework has opened wide possibilities to be applied in many micro-electronic application devices.

A new compound of N- (octyloxy)phenyl-N ′-(cinnamoyl) thiourea (3 ) doped with Curcuma longa as photosensitizer was successfully designed, prepared and characterized prior to form conductive thin film. The compound was spectroscopically characterized
