Abstract
Benzothioxanthene imide (BTI) has recently emerged as an interesting and promising block for organic electronics. In this contribution, we report on the impact of the N-annulation of the latter dye on the optoelectronic of π-extended molecular structures. To do so, the thiophene-diketopyrrolopyrrole was selected, as central π-conjugated core, and either end-capped with two BTIs or its N-annulated version, namely the TCI. While almost similar band gaps were measured for individual rylene imide dyes, significant differences were highlighted, and rationalized, on their π-extended counterparts.
