When many of the currently largest chemical companies were founded about 150 years ago,
textile dyes constituted their first products. Interestingly, while most of the utilized colorants …

Radical anions of electron-deficient systems are widely used, but are easily reoxidized upon
exposure to air. Therefore, the stabilization of radical anions under ambient conditions is of …

A series of highly soluble and fluorescent, at core tetraaryloxy-substituted and in imide
positions hydrogen atom containing perylene bisimide (PBI) dyes 1a− e with varying …

A novel kind of supramolecular free radical with significantly improved free radical yield and
enhanced near-infrared (NIR) photothermal conversion has been fabricated. Perylene …

Perylene-3, 4: 9, 10-bis (dicarboximides)(PBIs) rank among the most important functional
dyes and organic semiconductors, but only recently have their radical anions and dianions …

The article is concerned with the layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly of electrochromic films using
coordinative interactions between compounds. At first the concepts of coordinative …

Here we report the first example of an isolable, ambient stable perylene bisimide (PBI)
dianion which was synthesized by catalytic reduction of a highly electron deficient PBI …

Perylene diimide (PDI) with high electron affinities are promising candidates for applications
in polymer solar cells (PSCs). In addition, the strength of π‐deficient backbones and end …

The unexpected introduction of a cationic imidazolium substituent in the 2‐position of a
tetrachloro‐substituted perylene‐3, 4: 9, 10‐tetracarboxylic acid bisimide (PBI) by the …

Perylene diimides (PDIs), a well‐studied class of organic dyes, have a strong tendency to
self‐aggregate in water, thus greatly restricting their phototheranostic applications. Herein …
