Azaacene Dimers: Acceptor Materials with a Twist

The synthesis of five spiro‐linked azaacene dimers is reported and their properties are compared to that of their monomers. Dimerization quenches emission of the longer (≥(hetero)tetracenes) derivatives and furnishes amorphous thin‐films, the absorption is not affected. The larger derivatives were t...

description The synthesis of five spiro‐linked azaacene dimers is reported and their properties are compared to that of their monomers. Dimerization quenches emission of the longer (≥(hetero)tetracenes) derivatives and furnishes amorphous thin‐films, the absorption is not affected. The larger derivatives were tested as acceptors in bulk‐heterojunction photovoltaic devices with a maximum power conversion efficiency of up to 1.6 %.
