Abstract
The study of palladium-catalyzed amination of bromobenzene with aromatic and heterocyclic amines, widely used in the synthesis of organic semiconductors, was performed. The best conditions for the coupling of aryl bromides with carbazole, diphenylamine, phenoxazine, phenothiazine, 9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine, and their derivatives have been developed. Based on the results, nine new star-shaped organic semiconductors, exhibiting up to 100% fluorescent quantum yield in the 400-550 nm range, have been synthesized in good yields. The TDDFT calculations of the absorption spectra revealed a good correlation with experimental results and slight solvatochromic effects with a change in the polarity of the solvent.

Abstract
A series of bis(triphenylamine)benzodifuran chromophores have been synthesized and fully characterised. Starting from suitably functionalized benzodifuran (BDF) precursors, two triphenylamine (TPA) moieties are symmetrically coupled to a central BDF unit either at 4,8-positions through double bonds (1) and single bonds (2) respectively, or at 2,6-positions through double bonds (3). Their electronic absorption and photoluminescence properties as well as redox behaviour have been investigated in detail, indicating that the π-extended conjugation via vinyl linkers in 1 and 3 leads to comparatively strong electronic interactions between the relevant redox moieties TPA and BDF. Due to intriguing electronic properties and structural planarity, 3a has been applied as a dopant emitter in organic light-emitting diodes. A yellowish-green OLED exhibits a high external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 6.2%, thus exceeding the theoretical upper limit most likely due to energy transfer from an interface exciplex to an emissive layer and/or favorable horizontal orientation.

Abstract
The fused polycyclic furan structure is a ubiquitous motif in naturally occurring organic compounds. However, they had been rarely seen in the literature of organic electronic research until very recently, probably because of the lack of stability of simple furans under conditions that the compounds experience in the active layer of the device. Nonetheless, from the viewpoint of molecular structure, furans look to have potential merits as organic semiconductors such as thiophenes, which are more popular in the organic electronic area. For example, the small atomic radius and large electronegativity of oxygen will increase intermolecular molecular orbital (MO) overlap and hence facilitate charge transporting ability in the solid state. In this Account, we describe the molecular design and optoelectronic applications of fused polycyclic furans, such as benzodifurans (BDFs), naphthodifurans (NDFs), and anthradifurans (ADFs). The molecular design that was exploited in this study crucially depends on the synthetic flexibility of a "modular" synthetic strategy that we purposely developed and reviewed in a separate report. Our synthetic strategy comprises two steps carried out in situ: cyclization of an o-alkynylphenol into a zincio benzofuran and its electrophilic Negishi-type trapping to obtain a range of multisubstituted fused furan compounds. These compounds are found to possess electronic structures resembling those of fused polyaromatic hydrocarbons, such as acenes or phenacenes, rather than oxygen-bridged phenylenevinylene, along with unique characteristics: a wide HOMO-LUMO gap originating from the weak aromaticity of the furan rings, an intense photoluminescent character, and mechanofluorochromism. Semiconducting properties of fused furans are also excellent among organic materials: some BDF derivatives show high hole mobility on the order of 10-3 cm2/(V s) in the amorphous state using time-of-flight (TOF) technique. The p-type BDFs exhibit high performance as hole-transporting material in heterojunction organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), while carbazole-substituted BDFs (CZBDFs) are ambipolar with well-balanced high carrier mobility for both hole and electron and serve as host materials for full-color electroluminescence in both hetero- and homojunction architectures. More π-expanded NDFs showed good crystallinity and are effective active materials for organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) with a high hole mobility of up to 3.6 cm2/(V s) using a solution process. These studies have illustrated the high potential of fused polycyclic furans in organic electronics research, which thus far have attracted much less attention than their thiophene congeners.
