An Ambipolar Peryleneamidine Monoimide-Fused Polythiophene with Narrow Band Gap

Abstract: A peryleneamidine monoimide-fused terthiophene with a band gap of 1.4 eV has been synthesized. The donor-acceptor system can be electropolymerized to generate a functionalized polythiophene with a band gap of 0.9 eV and with ambipolar characteristics showing high electroactivity in both the p- and the n-doping process. This is the first example of a p-type conjugated polymer in direct conjugation with n-type perylenemonoimide moieties.

“…The cyclic voltammetry of perylenemonoimide moieties showed typical redox type behavior. Regardless of the thickness of the film on the electrode, peryleneamidine monoimide units were electroactive, which indicate a good delocalization of charges on the fully conjugated moieties, as well for the p-and n-doping [64]. It should be noted that in this case, the perinone group was not located in the main backbone of the conjugated polymer.…”

“…It should be noted that substitution with tetra-phenoxy groups at the bay region induced a decrease in the electron-accepting properties due to their predominant electron-donating effects [62]. Use of perylene monoimide instead of 39 in the synthesis process shown in Figure 16 led to unsymmetrical perinones which can easily be obtained [33,43,44,63,64].…”

“…Depending on the amine, several linear and branched alkyl chains of different lengths were introduced on the N-position, with the purpose of improving the solubility of the resulting material [ 383 , 387 , 388 , 389 ]. The pyrrole-dione group is also found on perylene-fused trimers [ 185 , 390 , 391 ].…”

“…This family of oligothiophene-imidazole-rylenimide assemblies was designed with the aim to study the influence of different variables in OFET devices: (i) the effect of the length of the oligothiophene fragment on the charge transport characteristics, (ii) the effect of the replacement of some thiophene units by weaker electron donor benzene moieties and (iii) the effect of the lateral extension of the π-conjugated systems via naphthalene diimide vs. perylene diimide core interchange. This first-generation of organic semiconductors based on rylenimide-fused oligothiophene units was obtained by condensation between suitable diaminooligothiophene unit 2 and the corresponding monoanhydride monoimide derivative 1 or 3 as it is depicted in Scheme 1 [10][11][12]. An analogue of NDI-3T in which the central thiophene unit is replaced by a benzene moiety, NDI-Ph-T-Ph (Figure 2) was also obtained by following a similar synthetic procedure.…”
