Abstract

The synthesis of a 6,11-bis-cyano N–H functionalized perylene diimide is reported. Electron withdrawing cyano groups were installed to counter the electron donating cyclic amine moiety with retention of functionality. Solution-processed, air-stable organic field-effect transistors are demonstrated using this new material.
