Abstract:

Three donor-acceptor molecules containing pyromellitic diimide chromophore were designed and synthesized. The synthetic route towards the target compounds was systematically investigated and discussed in detail. The resulted organic semiconductors have shown promising optoelectronic properties as further revealed by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and theoretic calculation.
