Abstract

We have designed a series of molecules and developed synthetic methodology that
allows for the inclusion of structural diversity along both the lateral and vertical axes of the
basic TCNQ skeleton. In the lateral direction, benzoannulation extends the π-system through
(hetero)acene formation, while incorporation of a [3]cumulene increases delocalization
vertically. The potential of these new molecules as semiconductors is explored through
UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, X-ray crystallography, thin film formation, and
mobility measurements (via space charge limited current measurements).
