title: Linear and star-shaped naphthalimide-fused pyrazinacenes.
abstract: A novel naphthalimide derivative endowed with a diketone functionality has been synthesized and used to develop a family of highly symmetric, flat, n-type semiconducting naphthalimide-based pyrazinacenes. By changing the symmetry of these compounds and the number of naphthalimide constituents, fine tuning of their electrochemical, photophysical, and morphological properties is achieved.
