2,1,3-Benzothiadiazole Small Donor Molecules: A DFT Study, Synthesis, and Optoelectronic Properties

We herein report the design and synthesis of small-donor molecules, 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole derivatives (<b>2a</b>–<b>d</b>), by Stille or Suzuki reaction. The synthesized compounds were characterized by spectroscopic and electrochemical methods. The compounds <b>2a</...
