Abstract
A novel pseudo rubrene analogue, 6,11-di(thiophen-2-yl)-tetracene-5,12-dione (DTTDO) was synthesized, in which two thienyl groups and two carbonyl groups replacing four phenyl groups in the rubrene molecule were connected to the backbone of tetracene. This compound was characterized by single crystal X-ray structure analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, absorption spectra and electrochemical measurements. Unlike rubrene, DTTDO exhibited excellent film forming ability by normal vacuum deposition, indicating its promising applications in organic thin film transistors.
