A range of ortho-π-extended PDI derivatives are straightforwardly synthesized in good yields through highly regioselective heteroannulations of ortho-alkynyl-substituted PDI derivatives with sulfur, selenium, or nitrogen nucleophiles. Successful synthesis of pyrrole-fused rylene dyes by using primary amines as nucleophiles indicates the great synthetic potential of this facile annulation route. Further opto-electrochemical study of these novel thiophene-, selenophene-, and pyrrole-fused PDIs suggests that effective π-conjugation enlargement combined with distortion of the perylene core renders these PDI derivatives tunable and desirable physical properties.

We have examined the structural and electron transport properties of a swallow-tailed ,'-bis(1-heptyloctyl)-perylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) () in thin films. A comprehensive analysis of material with the use of X-ray scattering methods evidenced the appearance of a new soft-crystalline mesophase that was induced by thermal processing of the swallow-tail PDI derivative. By combining electrical measurements with grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS), we show that these morphological changes of thin films boost their charge transport in the organic field-effect transistor (OFET) configuration.

Electronics based on natural or degradable materials are a key requirement for next-generation devices, where sustainability, biodegradability, and resource efficiency are essential. In this context, optimizing the molecular chemical structure of organic semiconductor compounds (OSCs) used as active layers is crucial for enhancing the efficiency of these devices, making them competitive with conventional electronics. In this work, honey-gated organic field-effect transistors (HGOFETs) were fabricated using four different perylene derivative films as OSCs, and the impact of the chemical structure of these perylene derivatives on the performance of HGOFETs was investigated.

A chiral agent, TPE-ASP, incorporating aspartic acid as the chiral source and tetraphenylene derivatives as chromophores, was designed and synthesized. The chiral agent was self-assembled into regular spherical nanoparticles with a maximum luminescence asymmetry factor of |2.41 × 10| at 460 nm which is attributed to TPE-ASP.

Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) regulates multiple protein functions by catalyzing the oxidation, reduction, and isomerization of disulfide bonds. The enzyme is considered a potential target for treating thrombosis. We previously developed a potent PDI inhibitor, CPD, which contains the propiolamide as a warhead targeting cysteine residue in PDI.

Helicenes exhibit promise as active layer materials for circularly polarized light (CPL) detectors due to their strong chiroptical activity. However, their practical application is limited by the complicated synthesis and loosely solid-state packing. This study introduces a chiral induction strategy towards the synthesis of helicene derivatives, chiral tetrachlorinated diperylene diimides (()-4CldiPDI or ()-4CldiPDI).
