“…All the commercially available reagents were purchased from Signa-Aldrich unless otherwise noted. The monomers including 2,7-bis(8-(methyldioctylsilyl)octyl)-4,9-bis(tributylstannyl)benzo[lmn][3,8]phenanthroline-1,3,6,8(2H, 7H)-tetraone ( NDI ), 4,7-bis(5-bromoselenophen-2-yl)-5,6-difluorobenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole ( S ), and 4,7-bis(5-bromo-selenophen-2-yl)-2-(2-ethylhexyl)-5,6-difluoro-2H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole ( N ) are synthesized based on the reported literature . The detailed synthesis of 2,7-bis(8-(methyldioctylsilyl)octyl)-4,9-bis((E)-2-(tributylstannyl) vinyl)benzo[lmn][3,8]phenanthroline-1,3,6,8(2H,7H)-tetraone ( v-NDI ) is described in the Supporting Information, and the process is based on methods reported in the literature.…”
