Photoinduced Electron Transfer in 2,5,8,11-Tetrakis-Donor-Substituted Perylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximides)
A series of electron donor-acceptor compounds based on substitution of perylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (PDI) with four electron donors at the 2,5,8,11-positions were synthesized and characterized using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. T

Accessing the Triplet State in Heavy-Atom-Free Perylene Diimides
Previous studies of perylenediimides (PDIs) mostly utilized the lowest singlet excited state S1. Generation of a triplet excited state (T1) in PDIs is important for applications ranging from photodynamic therapy to photovoltaics; how
Synthesis of arylated perylene bisimides through C - H bond cleavage under ruthenium catalysis
"Chemical Equation Presented" Treatment of perylene bisimide (PBI) with various arylboronates in the presence of a ruthenium catalyst provides tetraarylated PBIs at 2,5,8,11-positions In good yields with perfect regioselectlvity. The electronic nature of
