Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>How low can you go?</bold> N, N′‐substituted 15, 15, 16, 16‐tetracyano‐6, 13‐pentacenequinodimethane‐2, 3, 9, 10‐tetracarboxylic diimide derivatives (TCPQDI‐OC8 and TCPQDI‐OC10) were prepared in the presence of Lehnert's reagent at room temperature in good yields from the corresponding quinones. The tetracarboxylic diimide units in TCPQDI derivatives increase the π delocalization and lead to low LUMO energy levels of less than −4.0 eV.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1v5z8psb" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
