3,6-Dibromonaphthalene-2,7-diyl bis(trifluoromethanesulfonate)
The naphthalene fused ring of the title compound, C12H4Br2F6O6S2, is slightly buckled (r.m.s. deviation = 0.036 Å) along the common C—C bond and the benzene rings are twisted by 3.2 (3)°. The two trifluoromethylsulfonyl groups lie on opposite sides of the fused-ring system. The crystal structure features short intermolecular F⋯F contacts [2.715 (4) and 2.832 (4) Å]
Preparation of sponge cakes without eggs : substitution of Tukuneimo (Dioscrea Batatas Decne)
We prepared sponge cakes without eggs for egg-allergic patients. We prepared sponge cakes as authentically as possible by substituting Tukuneimo (Dioscrea Batatas Decne) for eggs. Baking powder (BP) was suitable as a leavening agent. The use of foam stabilizers (Taiyo Chemistry Co. : SP) resulted in a 50% reduction in the amount of Tukuneimo needed. The coloring of sponge cakes looked more authentic by adding vitamin B2. Adding cocoa or green tea powder masked the smell peculiar to Tukuneimo
Self-assembly and charge transport properties of a benzobisthiazole end-capped with dihexylthienothiophene units
The synthesis of a new conjugated material is reported; BDHTT–BBT features a central electron-deficient benzobisthiazole capped with two 3,6-dihexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophenes. Cyclic voltammetry was used to determine the HOMO (−5.7 eV) and LUMO (−2.9 eV) levels. The solid-state properties of the compound were investigated by X-ray diffraction on single-crystal and thin-film samples. OFETs were constructed with vacuum deposited films of BDHTT–BBT. The films displayed phase transitions over a range of temperatures and the morphology of the films affected the charge transport properties of the films. The maximum hole mobility observed from bottom-contact, top-gate devices was 3 × 10−3 cm2 V−1 s−1, with an on/off ratio of 104–105 and a threshold voltage of −42 V. The morphological and self-assembly characteristics versus electronic properties are discussed for future improvement of OFET devices
A Practical, One-Pot Synthesis of Highly Substituted Thiophenes and Benzo[b]thiophenes from Bromoenynes and o-Alkynylbromobenzenes
An efficient synthesis of thiophenes and benzo[b]thiophenes has been developed from easily available bromoenynes and o-alkynylbromobenzene derivatives. This novel one-pot procedure involves a Pd-catalyzed C–S bond formation using a hydrogen sulfide surrogate followed by a heterocyclization reaction. Moreover, in situ functionalization with selected electrophiles further expands the potential of this methodology to the preparation of the corresponding highly substituted sulfur heterocycles.Junta de Castilla y Leon (BU021A09 and GR-172) and Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion (MICINN) and FEDER (CTQ2010-15358 and CTQ2009-09949/BQU) for financial support.

ChemInform Abstract: Air-Stable and High-Mobility Organic Semiconductors Based on Heteroarenes for Field-Effect Transistors
Synthesis, characterization, and organic field-effect transistors study of conjugated D-A copolymers based on dialkylated naphtho[1,2-b:5,6- b
Naphtho[2,3-<i>b</i>:6,7-<i>b</i>′]dichalcogenophenes: Syntheses, Characterizations, and Chalcogene Atom Effects on Organic Field-Effect Transistor and Organic Photovoltaic Devices
New linear-shaped naphtho[2,3-<i>b</i>:6,7-<i>b</i>′]-difurans (NDFs) and -selenophenes (NDSs) were
synthesized
selectively from 3,7-dibromo-2,6-dihydroxynaphthalene and evaluated
as organic semiconductors in comparison to corresponding naphtho[2,3-<i>b</i>:6,7-<i>b</i>′]dithiophenes (NDTs). Evaluation
of the electronic structures of the parent compounds by means of electrochemical
and optical measurements clearly indicated that NDT and NDS are quite
similar to each other, whereas only NDF has a marked different electronic
structure. Thin film devices, including organic field-effect transistors
(OFETs) and bilayer photovoltaics (OPVs) with C<sub>60</sub> or C<sub>70</sub> as an acceptor layer, were fabricated with the diphenyl
derivatives using vacuum deposition. The thin films were found to
be nicely crystalline with the edge-on molecular orientation both
on Si/SiO<sub>2</sub> (for OFETs) and ITO substrates (for OPVs). The
thin films acted as active semiconducting layer in OFETs with mobility
higher than 0.1 cm<sup>2</sup> V<sup>–1</sup> s<sup>–1</sup> and as a donor layer in OPVs with power conversion efficiencies
of up to 2.0%, indicating that the present naphthodichalcogenophenes
are potential core structures for the development of new organic semiconductors
Dithiophene-Fused Tetracyanonaphthoquinodimethanes (DT-TNAPs): Synthesis and Characterization of π‑Extended Quinoidal Compounds for n‑Channel Organic Semiconductor
Dithiophene-fused
tetracyanonaphthoquinodimethanes
(DTTNAPs) were synthesized and evaluated as n-channel organic semiconductors.
DTTNAPs, regardless of isomeric structures and substituents, have
low-lying LUMO energy levels (∼4.6 eV below the vacuum level),
suitable for stable n-channel field-effect transistors (FETs) under
ambient conditions. In fact, α-DTTNAP derivatives afforded solution-processed
FETs showing an electron mobility of 10<sup>–3</sup> cm<sup>2</sup> V<sup>–1</sup> s<sup>–1</sup>, indicating that
DTTNAPs are a potential molecular framework for n-channel organic
semiconductors
