Abstract:The boron-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have attracted ongoing attention in the field of optoelectronic materials due to their unique optical and redox properties. To investigate the effect of tetracoordinate boron in PAHs bearing N-heterocycles (indole and carbazole), a facile approach to four-coordinate boron-doped PAHs was developed, which does not require elevated temperature and pre-synthesized functionalized boron reactants. Five tetracoordinate boron-doped PAHs (NBNN-1 – NBNN-5) were syn… Show more
