Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202319627. [PMID: 38443313 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202319627] [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: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024]
Abstract
High-performing n-type polymers are crucial for the advance of organic electronics field, however strong electron-deficient building blocks with optimized physicochemical properties for constructing them are still limited. The imide-functionalized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with extended π-conjugated framework, high electron deficiency and good solubility serve as promising candidates for developing high-performance n-type polymers. Among the PAHs, phenanthrene (PhA) features a well-delocalized aromatic π-system with multiple modifiable active sites . However, the PhA-based imides are seldom studied, mainly attributed to the synthetic challenge. Herein, we report two functionalized PhAs, CPOI and CPCNI, by simultaneously incorporating imide with carbonyl or dicyanomethylene onto PhA. Notably, the dicyanomethylene-modified CPCNI exhibits a well stabilized LUMO energy level (-3.84 eV), attributed to the synergetic inductive effect from imide and cyano groups. Subsequently, based on CPOI and CPCNI, two polymers PCPOI-Tz and PCPCNI-Tz were developed. Applied to organic thin-film transistors, owing to the strong electron-deficiency of CPCNI, polymer PCPCNI-Tz shows an improved electron mobility and largely decreased threshold voltage compared with PCPOI-Tz. This work affords two structurally novel electron-deficient building blocks and highlights the effectiveness of dual functionalization of PhAs with strong electron-withdrawing groups for devising n-type polymers.

Abstract
Until now, surface-deposited stilbenes have been much less studied than other photochromic systems. Here, an asymmetrically substituted styrene incorporating a redox-active ferrocene moiety and a terminal alkyne group has been synthesised to investigate its photoisomerization in solution, and upon the formation of chemisorbed self-assembled monolayers through a carbon-gold bond formation. Charge transport measurements across the monolayers reveal that upon chemical linkage to the gold substrate there is an alteration of the isomerization pathway, which favours the trans to cis conversion, which is not observed in solution. The experimental observations are interpreted based on quantum chemistry calculations.

Abstract
The twisted intramolecular charge transfer has been proposed for a number of years and widely accepted to explain the excited-state dynamics of organic molecules. Recently, a new state termed as "twisted and rehybridized intramolecular charge transfer" has been proposed to explain the excited-state dynamics of an aniline-triazine electron donor-acceptor dyad with an alkyne spacer based on ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopy. However, the change of the geometries along the excited-state decay pathway remains unknown. In this study, by optimization of the excited-state geometry of the donor-acceptor dyad and potential energy surface scan along the twisting angle, we successfully reproduce the experimentally observed band in time-resolved infrared absorption spectroscopy. Our calculation results demonstrated that the rehybridization process is not involved and only the twisted intramolecular charge transfer state is formed. Moreover, we located a minimum energy conical intersection between the ground and first excited-state of the donor-acceptor dyad, which is easily reached and corresponding to the primary nonradiative decay pathway of the donor-acceptor dyad. The energy of minimum energy conical intersection is solvent-dependent and consistent with the experimentally observed solvent-dependent lifetime of excited state.
