Intramolecular Palladium Catalyst Transfer on Benzoheterodiazoles as Acceptor Monomers and Discovery of Catalyst Transfer Inhibitors. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202301242. [PMID: 37302983 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202301242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Intramolecular catalyst transfer on benzoheterodiazoles was investigated in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions and polymerization reactions with t Bu3 PPd precatalyst. In the coupling reactions of dibromobenzotriazole, dibromobenzoxazole, and dibromobenzothiadiazole with pinacol phenylboronate, the product ratios of monosubstituted product to disubstituted product were 0/100, 27/73, and 89/11, respectively, indicating that the Pd catalyst undergoes intramolecular catalyst transfer on dibromobenzotriazole, whereas intermolecular transfer occurs in part in the case of dibromobenzoxazole and is predominant for dibromobenzothiadiazole. The polycondensation of 1.3 equivalents of dibromobenzotriazole with 1.0 equivalent of para- and meta-phenylenediboronates afforded high-molecular-weight polymer and cyclic polymer, respectively. In the case of dibromobenzoxazole, however, para- and meta-phenylenediboronates afforded moderate-molecular-weight polymer with bromine at both ends and cyclic polymer, respectively. In the case of dibromobenzothiadiazole, they afforded low-molecular-weight polymers with bromine at both ends. Addition of benzothiadiazole derivatives interfered with catalyst transfer in the coupling reactions.

Abstract
The effects of substituting electron withdrawing and electron donating functional groups on the electronic and optical properties of angular naphthodithiophene (aNDT) were studied. Substitutions were made to the aNDT molecule at position 2 and 7, respectively. The computed ionization parameters and reorganisation energies distinguished between the p-type and n-type semiconducting natures of the unsubstituted aNDT molecule and those with the -C2H5, -OCH3, -NO2, and -CN substituents. However, the aNDT molecule with C2H5 as a substitution showed p-type behaviour since it had the largest electron reorganisation energy of about 0.37 eV. The ambipolar semiconducting property of methoxy [-OCH3-] substituted aNDT molecule was revealed from the RMSD value of 0.03 Å for both positive and negative charges with respect to neutral geometry. The absorption spectra differ significantly from those of unsubstituted aNDT, which reveals the impact of functional group substitution that changes the energy level of the molecules. The maximum absorption (λmax) and oscillator strength (f) at the excited states in vacuum was investigated using time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The aNDT with electron withdrawing group [-NO2] substitution has a maximum absorption wavelength of 408 nm. Studying the intermolecular interactions between aNDT molecules was also accomplished with the help of Hirshfeld surface analysis. The current work provides insight into the development of novel organic semiconductors.

Abstract
Bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cells (OSCs) can be regarded as one of the most promising energy generation technologies for large-scale applications. Despite their several well-known drawbacks, the devices where polymers are employed as the donor are still leading the OSC universe in terms of performance. Such performance generally depends upon various critical factors such as the crystallinity of the material, the crystallization process during the film formation, and also the final film morphology. Despite a few reviews on the structure of the polymer donor materials and device performance, not enough attention has been paid toward the crystallinity problem. Herein, the structure and crystallinity of the representative polymer donor materials and the corresponding device properties have been briefly reviewed. Furthermore, several typical methods for controlling the crystallinity of materials have been summarized and illustrated as well. Moreover, the obstacles lying in the way of successful commercialization of such polymer solar cells have been systematically discussed. The in-depth interpretation of the crystallinity of the polymer donors in this article may stimulate novel ideas in material design and device fabrication.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2020; 7:1903331.

Abstract
Currently, there are only very few dopant-free polymer hole-transporting materials (HTMs) that can enable perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) to demonstrate a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of greater than 20%. To address this need, a simple and efficient way is developed to synthesize novel crossconjugated polymers as high performance dopant-free HTMs to endow PVSCs with a high PCE of 21.3%, which is among the highest values reported for single-junction inverted PVSCs. More importantly, rational understanding of the reasons why two isomeric polymer HTMs (PPE1 and PPE2) with almost identical photophysical properties, hole-transporting ability, and surface wettability deliver so distinctly different device performance under similar device fabrication conditions is manifested. PPE2 is found to improve the quality of perovskite films cast on top with larger grain sizes and more oriented crystallization. These results help unveil the new HTM design rules to influence the perovskite growth/crystallization for improving the performance of inverted PVSCs.

Abstract
Rapid improvements in nonfullerene polymer solar cells (PSCs) have brought power conversion efficiencies to greater than 12%. To further improve device performance, a fundamental understanding of the correlations between structure and performance is essential. In this paper, based on a typical high-performance system consisting of J61(one donor-acceptor (D-A) copolymer of benzodithiophene and fluorine substituted benzotriazole) and ITIC (3,9-bis(2-methylene-(3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-indanone)-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(4-hexylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2',3'-d']-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b']-dithiophene), a 3D structural model is directly imaged by employing high-resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM). Hierarchical morphologies ranging from fiberlike crystallites, several nanometers in size, to a bicontinuous morphology, having domains tens of nanometers in size, are observed. A fibrillar interpenetrating networks of J61-rich domains embedded in a matrix comprised of a J61/ITIC is seen, reflecting the partial miscibility of J61 with ITIC. These hierarchical nanostructural characteristics are coupled to significantly enhanced exciton dissociation, and further contribute to photocurrent and final device performance.

Abstract
A novel A2-A1-D-A1-A2-type nonfullerene acceptor, using thiazolidine-2,4-dione (TD) as the terminal acceptor (A2) for the first time, was designed and synthesized. The final molecule, BTA2, shows a high-lying lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of -3.38 eV and a wide optical band gap of 2.00 eV. Fullerene-free organic solar cells based on P3HT:BTA2 realized a high open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.22 V with a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.50%. These values are significantly higher than those of the PC61BM-based control device (Voc = 0.61 V, PCE = 3.67%), which indicates the feasibility of thiazolidine-2,4-dione to construct nonfullerene small-molecule acceptors with high Voc and PCE.

Abstract
Two donor-acceptor-acceptor (D-A-A)-type molecules incorporating nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBO) as the A-A block and ditolylamine as the D block bridged through a phenylene (PNBO) and a thiophene (TNBO) spacer were synthesized in a one-step coupling reaction. Their electronic, photophysical, and thermal properties; crystallographic analysis; and theoretical calculations were studied to establish a clear structure-property relationship. The results indicate that the quinoidal character of the thiophene bridge strongly governs the structural features and crystal packings (herringbone vs. brickwork) and thus the physical properties of the compounds. PNBO and TNBO were utilized as electron donors combined with C70 as the electron acceptor in the active layer of vacuum-processed bulk heterojunction small-molecule organic solar cells (SMOSCs). The power conversion efficiency of both PNBO- and TNBO-based OSCs exceeded 5 %. The ease of accessibility of PNBO and TNBO demonstrates the potential for simple and economical synthesis of electron donors in vacuum-processed SMOSCs.

Abstract
A metal-free approach combining sulfoxide-directed metal-free C-H cross-couplings with tuneable electrophile-mediated heterocyclizations and carbocyclative dimerizations, allows expedient access to benzothiophene-based systems that are components of important materials or are proven organic materials in their own right. As benzothiophene-based materials are typically prepared using Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling processes, our approach allows potential issues of metal cost and supply, and metal-contamination of products, to be avoided.

Abstract
Linear-fused naphthodithiophenes (NDTs) are emerging building blocks in the development of new semiconducting small molecules, oligomers, and polymers. The promising nature of NDT-based materials as organic semiconductors has been demonstrated by superior device characteristics in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs) in the last few years. In particular, it is quite impressive that a power conversion efficiency as high as 8.2% has been achieved for a single-junction OPV cell consisting of NDT-based semiconducting polymers and a fullerene derivative in such a short period of time. Here, we provide an overview of recent synthetic evolutions in NDT chemistry and progress in NDT-based materials, especially conjugated oligomers and polymers and their applications to OFETs and OPVs.

Abstract
New symmetrical arylene bisimide derivatives formed by using electron-donating-electron-accepting systems were synthesized. They consist of a phthalic diimide or naphthalenediimide core and imine linkages and are end-capped with thiophene, bithiophene, and (ethylenedioxy)thiophene units. Moreover, polymers were obtained from a new diamine, N,N'-bis(5-aminonaphthalenyl)naphthalene-1,4,5,8-dicarboximide and 2,5-thiophenedicarboxaldehyde or 2,2'-bithiophene-5,5'-dicarboxaldehyde. The prepared azomethine diimides exhibited glass-forming properties. The obtained compounds emitted blue light with the emission maximum at 470 nm. The value of the absorption coefficient was determined as a function of the photon energy using spectroscopic ellipsometry. All compounds are electrochemically active and undergo reversible electrochemical reduction and irreversible oxidation processes as was found in cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies. They exhibited a low electrochemically (DPV) calculated energy band gap (Eg) from 1.14 to 1.70 eV. The highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital levels and Eg were additionally calculated theoretically by density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level. The photovoltaic properties of two model compounds as the active layer in organic solar cells in the configuration indium tin oxide/poly(3,4-(ethylenedioxy)thiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate)/active layer/Al under an illumination of 1.3 mW/cm2 were studied. The device comprising poly(3-hexylthiophene) with the compound end-capped with bithiophene rings showed the highest value of Voc (above 1 V). The conversion efficiency of the fabricated solar cell was in the range of 0.69-0.90%.

[PMID: 27877654 PMCID: PMC5090405 DOI: 10.1088/1468-6996/15/2/024201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2014] [Revised: 04/02/2014] [Accepted: 03/03/2014] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
We present new semiconducting polymers incorporating naphtho[1, 2-b:5, 6-b'] dithiophene (NDT3) and naphtho[2, 1-b:6, 5-b'] dithiophene (NDT4), which are linked at the naphthalene positions, in the polymer backbone. It is interesting that the trend in the ordering structure and thus charge transport properties are quite different from what were observed in the isomeric polymers where the NDT3 and NDT4 cores are linked at the thiophene α-positions. In the thiophene-linked NDT system, the NDT3-based polymer (PNDT3BT) gave the better ordering in thin films and thus the high charge carrier mobility compared to the NDT4-based polymer (PNDT4BT). In the meantime, in the naphthalene-linked NDT system, the NDT4-based polymer (PNDT4iBT) provided the superior properties. Considering that PNDT4iBT has relatively low highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level (-5.2 eV) and moderately high mobilities in the order of 10-2 cm2 V-1 s-1, the NDT4 core, when linked at the naphthalene positions, can be a good building unit for the development of high-performance semiconducting polymers for both organic field-effect transistors and photovoltaic devices.
