Double Diels-Alder strategies to soluble 2,9- and 2,9,6,13- tetraethynylpentacenes, photolytic [4 + 4] cycloadditions, and pentacene crystal packing

(Chemical Equation Presented) Four new classes of organic solvent soluble ethynylpentacene derivatives (2,9-, 2,10-, 2,6,9,13-, 2,6,-10,13-) have been prepared by complementary, versatile, double Diels-Alder strategies. Functional groups on the A, C, and

Compounds comprising a linear series of five fused carbon rings, and preparation thereof

The present application discloses methods for the production of organic compounds comprising a linear series of five fused carbon rings. Such compounds are useful in the production of electronic components, devices and materials. For example the methods disclosed permit the production of 2,9- and 2,10-disubstituted pentacene compounds that present particularly advantageous properties for the manufacture of semiconductor materials, or ink jet fabrication, and may be used in devices such as for example thin film transistors and solar cells. Also disclosed are compounds that are excellent candidates for use in the manufacture of semiconductor materials, and other components of electronic systems, by virtue of their solubility, crystal packing geometries, and electronic properties.
