“…There is an unceasing interest in the investigation of Ox-Red and photophysical properties of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles (btd), bound with their specific intra/intermolecular interactions, electronic structure, and charge transfer processes. − Being good chromophores and fluorophores, btd derivatives are promising for several applications, such as the construction of organic light-emitting diodes, , fluorescent markers for mapping in living systems, − low band gap polymers for photovoltaics, , and photocatalysts and luminescent ligands for metal complexes. , Due to the special interest in the btd derivatives, their organic chemistry has been intensively studied. Numerous examples include 4,7-aryl-, , thiophene-, and fused bis-benzothiadiazole derivatives, pyridines, pyridazines, carbazoles, , and fluorinated compounds, as well as their methoxy- and dimethylamine derivatives …”
