Abstract
Flexible electronics have received considerable attention in the past decades due to their promising application in rollable display screens, wearable devices, implantable devices, and other electronic applications. In particular, conjugated polymers are favored for flexible electronics due to their mechanical flexibility and potential for solution-processed fabrication techniques, such as blade-coating, roll-to-roll printing, and high-throughput printing allowing for high-performance transistor devices. Thiophene is the prevailing conjugated unit to construct these conjugated polymers due to its favorable electronic properties. On the other hand, furans are among the few conjugated moieties that are easily derived from bio renewable resources. To promote sustainability, we selectively introduced furan into the conjugated backbone of a high-mobility polymer scaffold and systematically studied the effect on the microstructure and charge transport. We show that partially and selectively replacing thiophene units with furan can yield nearly comparable performance compared to the all-thiophene polymer. This strategy offers an improvement in the sustainability of the polymer by incorporating bio-sourced furan without sacrificing the high-performance characteristics. Meanwhile, polymers with incorrect or complete furan incorporation show reduced mobilities. This work serves to develop coherent structure-morphology-performance relationships; such knowledge will establish guidelines for the future development of sustainable, furan-based conjugated materials.

Abstract
The planar morphology of the backbone significantly contributes to the subtle optoelectronic features of π-conjugated polymers. On the other hand, the atomistic tuning of an otherwise identical π-backbone could also impact optoelectronic properties systematically. In this manuscript, we compare a series of 3,4-cycloalkylchalcogenophenes by tuning them atomistically using group-16 elements. Additionally, the effect of systematically extending these building blocks in the form of oligomers and polymers is studied. The size of the 3,4-substitution affected the morphology of the oligomers. In addition, the heteroatoms contributed to a further alteration in their geometry and resultant optoelectronic properties. The chalcogenophenes, containing smaller 3,4-cycloalkanes, resulted in lower bandgap oligomers or polymers compared to those with larger 3,4-cycloalkanes. Natural bonding orbital (NBO) calculations were performed to understand the disparity alongside the contour maps of frontier molecular orbitals (FMO).

Abstract
Herein we describe the Ag(i)-catalyzed direct selanylation of indoles with diorganoyl diselenides. The reaction gave 3-selanylindoles with high regioselectivity and also allowed direct access to 2-selanylindoles when the C3 position of the indole ring was blocked via a process similar to Plancher rearrangement. Experimental analyses and density functional theory calculations were carried out in order to picture the reaction mechanism. Among the pathways considered (via concerted metalation-deprotonation, Ag(iii), radical, and electrophilic aromatic substitution), our findings support a classic electrophilic aromatic substitution via Lewis adducts between Ag(i) and diorganoyl diselenides. The results also afforded new insights into the interactions between Ag(i) and diorganoyl diselenides.

Abstract
Diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP), due to its good planarity, π-conjugate structure, thermal stability, and structural modifiability, has received much attention from the scientific community as an excellent semiconductor material for its applications in the field of optoelectronics, such as organic solar cells, organic photovoltaics, and organic field effect transistors. In this study, a new small molecule, pyrrolopyrrole aza-BODIPY (PPAB), based on the thiophene-substituted DPP structure was developed using the Schiff-base formation reaction of DPP and heteroaromatic amines. Absorption spectroscopy, electrochemistry, X-ray diffraction, molecular theoretical simulation calculation were performed, and organic field-effect transistor properties based on PPAB were investigated. It was found that PPAB exhibits a broad absorption range in the visible and near-infrared regions, which is attributed to its long-range conjugate structure. In addition, it is worth noting that PPAB has multiple F atoms resulting in the low LUMO level, which is conducive to the injection and transportation of charge carriers between the semiconductor layer and the electrode. Meanwhile, its hole carrier mobility is up to 1.3 × 10−3 cm2 V−1 s−1 due to its large conjugate structure, good intramolecular charge transfer effect, and high degree of coplanarity. In this study, a new chromophore with electron-deficient ability for designing high-performance semiconductors was successfully synthesized.

Abstract
The structure of the title compounds 3-bromo-2-(phenyl-sulfan-yl)benzo[b]thiophene (C14H9BrS2; 1), 3-iodo-2-(phenyl-sulfan-yl)benzo[b]thio-phene (C14H9IS2; 2), 3-bromo-2-(phenyl-selan-yl)benzo[b]seleno-phene (C14H9BrSe2; 3), and 3-iodo-2-(phenyl-selan-yl)benzo[b]seleno-phene (C14H9ISe2; 4) were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction; all structures presented monoclinic (P21/c) symmetry. The phenyl group is distant from the halogen atom to minimize the steric hindrance repulsion for all structures. Moreover, the structures of 3 and 4 show an almost linear alignment of halogen-selenium-carbon atoms arising from the intra-molecular orbital inter-action between a lone pair of electrons on the halogen atom and the anti-bonding σ*Se-C orbital (n halogen→σ*Se-C). This inter-action leads to significant differences in the three-dimensional packing of the mol-ecules, which are assembled through π-π and C-H⋯π inter-actions. These data provide a better comprehension of the inter-molecular packing in benzo[b]chalcogenophenes, which is relevant for optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
A selenophene-containing conjugated organic ligand, 2-(4'-methyl-5'-(5-(3-methylthiophen-2-yl)selenophen-2-yl)-[2,2'-bithiophen]-5-yl)ethan-1-aminium (STm), was synthesized and incorporated into a Sn(II)-based two-dimensional perovskite, (STm)2SnI4. The band offset between the perovskite and ligand can be fine-tuned by introducing the STm ligand. Both field-effect transistor and light-emitting diode devices based on (STm)2SnI4 films exhibit high performance and enhanced operational stability.

Abstract
Heavy atom substitution in chalcogenophenes is a versatile strategy for tailoring and ultimately improving conjugated polymer properties. While thiophene monomers are commonly implemented in polymer designs, relatively little is known regarding the molecular properties of the heavier chalcogenophenes. Herein, we use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to examine how group 16 heteroatoms, including the radioactive polonium, affect polychalcogenophene properties including bond length, chain twisting, aromaticity, and optical properties. Heavier chalcogenophenes are more quinoidal in character and consequently have reduced band gaps and larger degrees of planarity. We consider both the neutral and radical cationic species. Upon p-type doping, bond length rearrangement is indicative of a more delocalized electronic structure, which combined with optical calculations is consistent with the polaron-model of charge storage on conjugated polymer chains. A better understanding of the properties of these materials at their molecular levels will inevitably be useful in material design as the polymer community continues to explore more main group containing polymers to tackle issues in electronic devices.

Abstract
Over the past several decades, organic conjugated materials as semiconductors in organic field effect transistors (OFETs) have attracted more and more attention from the scientific community due to their intriguing properties of mechanical flexibility and solution processability. However, the device fabrication technique, design, and synthesis of novel organic semiconductor materials with high charge carrier mobility is crucial for the development of high-performance OFETs. In the past few years, more and more novel materials were designed and tested in the OFETs. Among which, diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) and its derivatives, as the electron acceptors to build donor-acceptor (D-A) typed materials, are the perspective. In this article, recently reported molecules regarding the DPP and its derivatives for OFETs application are reviewed. In addition, the relationship between the chemical structures and the performance of the device are discussed. Furthermore, an outlook of DPP-based materials in OFETs with a future design concept and the development trend are provided.

Abstract
An alternative method to prepare 2-organylchalcogenopheno[2,3-b]pyridines was developed by the insertion of chalcogen species (selenium, sulfur or tellurium), generated in situ, into 2-chloro-3-(organylethynyl)pyridines by using the NaBH4 /PEG-400 reducing system, followed by an intramolecular cyclization. It was possible to obtain a series of compounds with up to 93 % yield in short reaction times. Among the synthesized products, 2-organyltelluropheno[2,3-b]pyridines have not been described in the literature so far. Moreover, the compounds 2-phenylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine (3 b) and 2-phenyltelluropheno[2,3-b]pyridine (3 c) exhibited significant antioxidant potential in different in vitro assays. Further studies demonstrated that compound 3 b exerted an antinociceptive effect in acute inflammatory and non-inflammatory pain models, thus indicating the involvement of the central and peripheral nervous systems on its pharmacological action. More specifically, our results suggest that the intrinsic antioxidant property of compound 3 b might contribute to attenuating the nociception and inflammatory process on local injury induced by complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA).

Abstract
In this work, three benzodithiophene-benzotriazole alternated wide band gap copolymers attaching symmetric or asymmetric conjugated side chains, namely, PDBTFBTA-2T, PBDTFTBA-TSi, and PBDTFBTA-2Si, were developed for efficient nonfullerene polymer solar cells. The symmetry effect of the side chains was investigated in detail on the overall properties of these donor polymers. The results demonstrated that the introduced siloxane functional groups showed less effect on the absorption and frontier orbital levels of the prepared polymers but had a significant effect on the miscibility between these polymer donors and the nonfullerene acceptor. When increasing the content of siloxane functional groups, the miscibility of the polymer donors and Y6 would be improved, leading to the decreased domain size and more mixed domains. Interestingly, the active blend based on PBDTFTBA-TSi with asymmetric side chains exhibited more balanced miscibility, carrier mobility, and phase separation, benefiting exciton diffusion and dissociation. Therefore, a champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.18% was achieved finally in PBDTFTBA-TSi devices, which was 20.6 and 19.0% higher than the symmetric counterparts of PBTFBTA-2T devices (PCE = 11.76%) and PBDTFBTA-2Si devices (PCE = 11.92%), respectively. This work highlights that the asymmetric side-chain engineering based on siloxane functional groups is a promising design strategy for high-performance polymer donor semiconductors.

Introduction of Siloxane-Terminated Side Chains into Semiconducting Polymers To Tune Phase Separation with Nonfullerene Acceptor for Polymer Solar Cells.

Abstract
In this work, five PTB7-Th-based conjugated polymers (PTB7-Th, PTBSi20, PTBSi25, PTBSi33, and PTBSi100) with different contents of siloxane-terminated pentyl side chain were synthesized, and properties of corresponding blend films with narrow band gap nonfullerene IEICO-4F acceptor were extensively investigated. According to the contact angle testing, the PTB7-Th with 100% alkyl side chain and PTBSi100 100% siloxane-terminated side chain on the benzodithiophene unit showed surface energy values of 40.04 and 34.52 mJ/m2, respectively. The results demonstrate that relative to alkyl side chain in PTB7-Th, the siloxane-terminated side chain could effectively reduce the surface energy of a resulting polymer. Based on Flory-Huggins interaction parameter estimations, the miscibility between the polymer and IEICO-4F would vary in an order of PTB7-Th > PTBSi20 > PTBSi25 > PTBSi33 > PTBSi100, suggesting that siloxane-terminated side chain would afford a tunable driving force for phase separation. Transmission electron microscopy and Raman mapping could confirm large bulk domains inside the PTBSi100:IEICO-4F blend film. In polymer solar cells, the blend film of the PTBSi100 with the lowest miscibility to IEICO-4F showed an undesirable power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 8.52%, which was significantly lower than that of 11.23% for PTB7-Th, suggesting that too large phase separation driving force is not beneficial for the device performance. Side-chain random copolymers PTBSi20, PTBSi25, and PTBSi33 for fine tuning could display PCEs of 11.94, 12.61, and 11.80%, respectively, all higher than that of PTB7-Th. Our results not only reveal the big surface energy difference between the siloxane-terminated side chain and the common alkyl side chain but also provide a guideline for side chain engineering of conjugated polymer donors with tunable morphology and optimal matching with a nonfullerene acceptor.

Abstract
In recent times, fused aromatic diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based functional semiconductors have attracted considerable attention in the developing field of organic electronics. Over the past few years, DPP-based semiconductors have demonstrated remarkable improvements in the performance of both organic field-effect transistor (OFET) and organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices due to the favorable features of the DPP unit, such as excellent planarity and better electron-withdrawing ability. Driven by this success, DPP-based materials are now being exploited in various other electronic devices including complementary circuits, memory devices, chemical sensors, photodetectors, perovskite solar cells, organic light-emitting diodes, and more. Recent developments in the use of DPP-based materials for a wide range of electronic devices are summarized, focusing on OFET, OPV, and newly developed devices with a discussion of device performance in terms of molecular engineering. Useful guidance for the design of future DPP-based materials and the exploration of more advanced applications is provided.

Abstract
π-Conjugated organic donor-acceptor (D-A) type polymers are widely developed and used in electronic device. Among which, diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based polymers have received the most attention due to their high performances. The novel chromophores named 1,3,4,6-tetraarylpyrrolo[3,2-b]pyrrole-2,5-dione (isoDPP), benzodipyrrolidone (BDP) and naphthodipyrrolidone (NDP) are resemble DPP in chemical structure. IsoDPP is an isomer of DPP, with the switching position of carbonyl and amide units. The cores of BDP and NDP are tri- and tetracyclic, whereas isoDPP is bicyclic. π-Conjugation extension could result polymers with distinct optical, electrochemical and device performance. It is expected that the polymers containing these high-performance electron-deficient pigments are potential in the electronic device applications, and have the potential to be better than the DPP-based ones. IsoDPP, BDP, and NDP based polymers are synthesized since 2011, and have not receive desirable attention. In this work, the synthesis, properties (optical and electrochemical characteristics), electronic device as well as their relationship depending on core-extension or structure subtle optimization have been reviewed. The final goal is to outline a theoretical scaffold for the design the D-A type conjugated polymers, which is potential for high-performance electronic devices.
