We present here a new family of hybrid rylene arrays (3a-d) by the combination of Stille coupling and C-H transformation via a facile one-pot synthesis. The 7r-expanded rylene diimides exhibit broadened and intensive optical absorption accompanied by higher electron affinity. The linear alkyl chain substituted NDI-diPDI-NDI (3b) revealed its electron transporting characteristics with good air stability and low threshold voltage.
