Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A class of linear acenes containing up to 14 nitrogen atoms has been prepared. These are the longest ‘pyrazinacene’ compounds prepared to date. The compounds have been characterized by chemical methods and crystallography. If compounds contained reduced rings (i.e. have hydrogen atoms) they were found to be delocalized, as predicted. Several compounds were studied for self-assembly on surfaces and were found to form polymeric structures. Some of the compounds were found to be useful for solar cell applications. The compounds were also found to be highly useful as organic catalysts based on the presence of the exchangeable protons and photosensitivity, as discovered in this work.
