A versatile strategy to directly synthesize 4,8-functionalized benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]difurans for organic electronics

Abstract

A direct synthesis of 4,8-functionalized benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]difurans (BDFs) is developed. By fine-tuning the energy levels with different 4,8-functionalities or incorporating with electron-accepting units, BDFs show great potential as organic electronic materials, as demonstrated by 4.61% power conversion efficiency for polymer solar cells.
