Design, synthesis, and properties of new derivatives of pentacene
Stable, soluble ethynylated derivatives of pentacene (9a-c) were synthesized, and the ethynyl moieties on the terminal rings were used to tune the electronic properties of these compounds. Their oxidation potentials are higher and their reduction potentia
