The Ullmann homocoupling of 2-bromo-perylene diimides (PDIs) gave [2,2'-biperylene]-3,4:9,10:3',4':9',10'-tetrakis(dicarboximide)s, 2,2'-bi(PDI)s, and the Suzuki coupling of a PDI-2-boronic ester and a 1-bromo-PDI gave a [1,2'-biperylene]-3,4:9,10:3',4':9',10'-tetrakis(dicarboximide), 1,2'-bi(PDI). These were compared with [1,1'-biperylene]-3,4:9,10:3',4':9',10'-tetrakis(dicarboximide)s, 1,1'-bi(PDI)s. Solution absorption spectra suggest that the PDIs in 2,2'-bi(PDI)s are more planar and less strongly coupled than those in 1,1'-bi(PDI)s, which is consistent with density functional theory calculations. 2,2'-Bi(PDI)s are less easily reduced than 1,1'- and 1,2'-bi(PDI)s by ca. 70-90 mV. Bulk heterojunction organic solar cells incorporating a 2,2'-bi(PDI) acceptor behaved similarly to those employing its 1,1'-bi(PDI) analogue.
2-溴苝二酰亚胺(PDIs)的乌尔曼自偶联反应生成了[2,2'-联苝]-3,4:9,10:3',4':9',10'-四羧酸二酰亚胺、2,2'-联(PDI),而PDI-2-硼酸酯与1-溴-PDI的铃木偶联反应生成了[1,2'-联苝]-3,4:9,10:3',4':9',10'-四羧酸二酰亚胺、1,2'-联(PDI)。将这些产物与[1,1'-联苝]-3,4:9,10:3',4':9',10'-四羧酸二酰亚胺、1,1'-联(PDI)进行了比较。溶液吸收光谱表明,2,2'-联(PDI)中的PDIs比1,1'-联(PDI)中的PDIs更平面化且耦合作用更弱,这与密度泛函理论计算结果一致。2,2'-联(PDI)比1,1'-和1,2'-联(PDI)更难被还原,约低70 - 90 mV。包含2,2'-联(PDI)受体的本体异质结有机太阳能电池的性能与其1,1'-联(PDI)类似物的性能相似。
