Zusammenfassung:regioselective Ir-catalyzed C-H borylation and subsequent reactions ( , or intermediates), we have introduced strong π-donors and acceptors at the 2,5,8,11-positions of perylene leading to unusual properties. Thus, incorporation of four donor diphenylamine (DPA) or four acceptor Bmes (mes = 2,4,6-Me C H ) moieties yields novel compounds which can be reversibly oxidized or reduced four times, respectively, an unprecedented behavior for monomeric perylene derivatives. Spectroelectrochemical measurements show NIR absorptions up to 3000 nm for the mono-cation radical of and a strong electronic coupling over the perylene bridge was observed indicative of fully delocalized Robin-Day Class III behavior. Both and derivatives possess unusually long intrinsic singlet lifetimes ( ), , 94 ns for the former one. The compounds are emissive in solution, thin films, and the solid state, with apparent Stokes shifts that are exceptionally large for perylene derivatives. Transient absorption measurements on reveal an additional excited state, with a long lifetime of 500 μs, which sensitizes singlet oxygen effectively.
