| dc.description.abstract | This thesis describes the development of a synthetic route to create the asymmetric indenofluorene derivative indacenobenzofuranbenzothiophene (IBFBT). Synthesis and characterization of indenofluorenes and indenofluorene derivatives are active areas of research within the Haley Lab due to inherent properties of indenofluorenes that can be tuned to fit various organic electronic applications. Indenofluorenes themselves already display high levels of pi-conjugation and electron delocalization, making them suitable for conducting an electric current. Additionally, the antiaromatic character caused by the s-indacene core within the structure of indenofluorenes further improves the capability for electron mobility through the structure. Indenofluorene derivatives have demonstrated even greater potential for organic electronic application as the incorporation of various functional groups and heterocycles allows for further fine tuning of electronic properties. Continued synthesis and characterization of new indenofluorene derivatives will help us to better understand how we can continue to fine tune the electronic capabilities of these compounds for application in organic electronics. | en |
