Donor–acceptor–donor (DAD) triad systems are commonly applied as active materials in ambipolar organic field-effect transistors, organic solar cells, and NIR-emitting organic light-emitting diodes. Often, these triads utilize oligothiophenes as donors, whereas their oxygen-containing analogs, oligofurans, are far less studied in this setup. Here we introduce a family of DAD triads in which the donors are oligofurans and the acceptor is benzothiadiazole. In a combined computational and experimental study, we show that these triads display optical bandgaps similar to those of their thiophene analogs, and that a bifuran donor is sufficient to produce emission in the NIR spectral region. The presence of a central acceptor unit increases the photostability of oligofuran-based DAD systems compared with parent oligofurans of the similar length.

A donor-acceptor organic molecule based on fluorene unit as an electron donor and aldehyde group as an electron acceptor has been demonstrated in high yields over four steps. This approach offers a much milder and more efficient route to synthesize the target compound via the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction. Optical spectra show that the electron-accepting groups induce an intermolecular charge transfer, resulting in a shift of the absorbance maximum toward longer wavelength. Such D-A type intermediate compounds as organic molecules display a significantly improved property profile in photoelectrical materials for applications in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic photovoltaics (OPVs), and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs).
