Elucidating the non-radiative losses encountered in intramolecular charge transfer compounds with benzodithiophene-4,8-dione acceptors

Abstract

A new yellow-emitting quadrupolar donor–π–acceptor–π–donor (D–π–A–π–D) molecule compound has been synthesised featuring benzo-[1,2-c:4,5-c’]dithiophene-4,8-dione as the acceptor. This molecule was prepared for the purpose of elucidating the origins of the very...
