One-step synthesis of perylenediimides exhibiting near-infrared absorption and emission by amino–yne click reaction

Abstract

The facile synthesis of chromophores with near-infrared (NIR) absorption and emission is of particular interest due to their wide range of applications. Here we report a one-step synthesis of amino-functionalized...

Perylenediimide regioisomers with tunable physicochemical and charge-transport properties

“…As a famous class of organic dyes, rylene diimides have attracted enormous interest because of their strong electron-withdrawing ability, robust chemical/thermal stability, and high absorption coefficients. 1 Thanks to the above merits, rylene diimide-based molecular semiconductors have been widely applied to a variety of organic electronics, such as organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs), organic solar cells (OSCs), organic thermoelectrics, and organic light-emitting diodes. 2…”
