A series of low band gap isothianaphthene-based (ITN) polymers with various electron-withdrawing substituents and intrinsic quinoidal character were synthesized, characterized, and tested in organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. The three investigated ITN cores contained either ester, imide, or nitrile functionalities and were each synthesized in only four linear steps. The relative electron-withdrawing strength of the three substituents on the ITN moiety was evaluated and correlated to the optical and electronic properties of ITN-based copolymers. The ester- and imide-containing p-type polymers reached device efficiencies as high as 3% in bulk heterojunction blends with phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM), while the significantly electron-deficient nitrile-functionalized polymer behaved as an n-type material with an efficiency of 0.3% in bilayer devices with poly(3-(4-n-octyl)phenylthiophene) (POPT).

Different approaches to brominate dialkyl isothianaphthene-5,6- dicarboxylate were tried and single crystals of target molecule and side product were obtained. A planar copolymer with the trans-ethene has been prepared, which shows good solubility in common organic solvents and broad absorption with edge to 967 nm in film. Isothianaphthene derivatives have been brominated successfully, which could be used directly as bulilding block in Stille couplings towards the application in organic electronics. A planar copolymer with the trans-ethene was synthesized which shows broad absorption with edge to 967 nm in film. Copyright

Conjugated alternating copolymers were designed with low optical band gaps for organic photovoltaic (OPV) applications by considering quinoid resonance stabilization. Copolymers of thienoisoindoledione (TID) and benzodithiophene (BDT) had appreciably lower band gaps (by ~0.4 eV) than copolymers of thienopyrroledione (TPD) and BDT. In addition to intramolecular charge transfer stabilization (i.e., the "push-pull" effect), the former copolymer's quinoid resonance structure is stabilized by a gain in aromatic resonance energy in the isoindole unit. Additionally, the HOMO levels of the copolymers could be tuned with chemical modifications to the BDT monomer, resulting in open circuit voltages of greater than 1 V in photovoltaic devices. Despite the optimized band gap, TID containing polymers displayed lower photoconductance, as determined by time-resolved microwave conductivity, and decreased device efficiency (2.1% vs 4.8%) as compared with TPD analogues. These results were partially attributed to morphology, as computational modeling suggests TID copolymers have a twisted backbone, and X-ray diffraction data indicate the polymer films do not form ordered domains, whereas TPD copolymers are considerably more planar and are shown to form partially ordered domains.
Synthesis of the anti and syn isomers of thieno[f,f′]bis[1] benzothiophene. Comparison of the optical and electrochemical properties of the anti and syn isomers

We report isomer-pure synthesis of thieno[2,3-f:5,4-f′]bis-[1] benzothiophene and thieno[3,2-f:4,5-f′]bis[1]benzothiophene, the anti and syn isomers of a pentacyclic compound consisting of alternating thiophene and benzene rings. The optical and electrochemical properties of both are reported. In the anti isomer, the ribbonlike embedding of three thiophene units leads to a near-planar molecule with favorable π-π stacking behavior in the solid state as shown by X-ray crystal structure analysis.
