چکیده

Functionalization of the pro-cata positions of pentacene with groups held perpendicular to the aromatic plane, in this case through a rigid 1,3-dioxole unit, yields pentacene derivatives that are stable and soluble, and still maintain edge-to-face interactions in the solid state.

Functionalized higher acenes: hexacene and heptacene.

We have extended our functionalization strategy for pentacene to the higher acenes hexacene and heptacene. Provided a large enough alkyne substituent is used, these large aromatic rods are both stable and soluble and can be characterized spectroscopically as well as by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Functionalized pentacene: improved electronic properties from control of solid-state order.

Molecular order has proven to be a significant factor in the performance of devices based on organic semiconductors. Recent studies involving solubilized versus unsubstituted thiophene oligomers have demonstrated that modifications which increase orbital overlap in the solid state can improve device performance by more than an order of magnitude.1 Similar studies on pentacene, a compound which ...

Strategies for the Synthesis of Higher Acenes

The outstanding performance of pentacene-based molecules in molecular electronics, as well as the predicted enhanced semiconducting properties of extended acenes, have stimulated the development of new synthetic methods and functionalization strategies for the preparation of stable and soluble acenes larger than tetracene with the aim of obtaining improved functional materials.

Synthesis and characterization of electron-deficient pentacenes.

[structure: see text]. Halogen functional groups on pentacene can be used both as synthetic handles for further functionalization as well as to tune the pi-stacking in these systems. The halogenated pentacene derivatives described here (X = Br, X' = H, and X = X' = F) are all stable and soluble, with reduction potentials significantly lower than that of the parent functionalized pentacene (X = ...

Synthesis and structural characterization of crystalline nonacenes.

Acenes and functionalized acenes have played a pivotal role in the development of organic electronic materials. From the first report of high-mobility organic transistors based on vapor-deposited pentacene, to high-efficiency organic lightemitting diodes based on anthracene, and the remarkable transport properties of rubrene, these linearly fused hydrocarbons have made significant contributions...
