Abstract

Three noncovalently fused-ring electron acceptors (FOC6-IC, FOC6-FIC, and FOC2C6-2FIC) are synthesized. Single crystals of FOC6-IC and FOC2C6-2FIC are prepared, and structure analyses reveal that the molecular backbone can be planarized via the formation of the intramolecular noncovalent interactions. These acceptor molecules can be packed closely in the solid state via π–π stacking and static interactions between the central phenylene unit and the terminal group with a distance of 3.3–3.4 Å. Besides, multiple intermolecular noncovalent interactions can be observed in the single crystal structure of the fluorinated acceptor FOC2C6-2FIC, which help increase the crystallinity of acceptors and the charge mobility of the blends. Photovoltaic devices based on FOC2C6-2FIC give a power conversion efficiency of 12.36%, higher than 12.08% for FOC6-FIC and 10.80% for FOC6-IC.
