Design, synthesis, and application in OFET of a small molecule based on π-expanded fused diketopyrrolopyrrole.

Diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) and its derivatives, as electron deficient units, are widely used as building blocks in organic field-effect transistors, obtaining high performance. However, further modification of the DPP structure is crucial for the development of organic semiconductors. In this work, an FDPP is synthesized and characterized.
