SYNTHESIS OF FT4-BASED ORGANIC SEMICONDUCTING SMALL MOLECULES BY PD-CATALYZED DIRECT (HETERO)ARYLATION OR DIRECT ALKENYLATION

摘要

A method for forming organic semiconducting materials, including: providing a mixture having: a tetrathienoacene (FT4)-based monomer, and one of a thiophene-containing compound or an alkene-containing compound; and reacting the FT4-based monomer with the thiophene-containing compound or the alkene-containing compound in a one-step direct arylation reaction mechanism to form a final FT4-based organic semiconducting compound.
