Synthesis and investigation of spectral and electrochemical properties of alkyl-substituted planar binuclear phthalocyanine complexes sharing a common naphthalene ring

Hexa-tert-butyl and dodeca-n-butyl-substituted planar binuclear phthalocyanines sharing a common naphthalene ring with Mg as a central metal were synthesized with high yields and characterized by UV/Vis spectra, luminescence spectra, NMR, electrochemical,

Dinaphthotetrathiafulvalene Bisimides: A New Member of the Family of π-Extended TTF Stable p-Type Semiconductors

Air-stable organic semiconductors based on tetrathiafuluvalene (TTF) were developed by synthesising a series of dinaphthotetrathiafulvalene bisimides (DNTTF-Im) using electron-donating TTF, π-extended naphthalene, and electron-withdrawing imide. Electron-

On-Surface Cyclization of ortho-Dihalotetracenes to Four- and Six-Membered Rings

We report on the surface-catalyzed formal [2+2] and [2+2+2] cycloadditions of ortho-activated tetracene species on a Ag(111) substrate under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Three different products are obtained: tetracene dimers, trimers, and tetramers. The

Subnaphthalocyanine triimides: Potential three-dimensional solution processable acceptors for organic solar cells

Subnaphthalocyanine triimides (SubNcTIs) as solution processable electron acceptors were designed and synthesized by introducing three electron-withdrawing imide groups to subnaphthalocyanines. Their solubility and crystallinity could be adjusted convenie

Enhanced optical limiting performance of substituted metallo- naphthalocyanines with wide optical limiting window

Octa-(4-tert-butylphenoxy) substituted naphthalocyanines coordinated with different central metals (Ga, In) were synthesized and their photophysical and optical limiting properties were investigated. The naphthalocyanines substituted peripherally with bul

(Tetracyannaphthalocyaninato)eisen(II) mit Isocyaniden als axialen Liganden

(Tetracyanonaphthalocyaninato)iron(II) is obtained by treating 2,3,6-tricyanonaphthalene (5) with iron(II)acetate.Compound 5 is synthesized according to the route given in Scheme 1.The mononuclear bisaxial isocyanide complexes (CN)4-2,

Polycyclic Biphenylenes. Part 6. Direct Routes to Benzobiphenylene and Related Systems via Cycloaddition Reactions

The simultaneous generation of 1,2-dibromobenzocyclobutene and 5,6-bis(bromomethylene)cyclohexa-1,3-diene gives benzobiphenylene directly.Annelated derivatives of this ring system, including naphtho-, biphenyleno-, and biphenyleno-
