Description

1-Bromo-7-(n-Butoxyl)Perylenediimide is a high-purity, functionalized perylene derivative designed for advanced material science applications. This compound matters for its role as a key intermediate and building block in the development of high-performance organic semiconductors and dyes. It is primarily needed by researchers and manufacturers in the organic electronics, photovoltaics, and specialty pigments industries seeking to tune the optoelectronic properties of their materials.

Application

• As a crucial intermediate in the synthesis of n-type organic semiconductors for OFETs (Organic Field-Effect Transistors).
• As a functional building block for constructing perylene-based dyes with tailored solubility and absorption/emission profiles.
• In the research and development of non-fullerene acceptors for next-generation organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells.
• For the preparation of luminescent materials and sensors where the bromo and alkoxy substituents allow for further chemical modification.
• In the formulation of high-stability pigments and colorants for specialized coatings and plastics.

Quality Control

Our 1-Bromo-7-(n-Butoxyl)Perylenediimide is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity, essential for sensitive electronic applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization, including HPLC, NMR, and elemental analysis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity and identity is provided with every shipment to support your R&D and quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent degradation.
