Terrylene diimides with four aromatic heterocycles (AHTDIs) were synthesized under Stille Cross-coupling conditions and fully characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry. The aggregation of the terrylene diimide (TDI) was suppressed by four heterocycles substituents on the bay region, and these AHTDIs exhibited good solubility in common organic solvents. The effects of the substituted groups on the optical and electrochemical properties were also investigated. The introduction of four aromatic heterocycles on the bay of TDI resulted in significant red-shifts of the absorption peak (100 nm), corresponding to a decrease in the band gap from 1.82 to 1.50 eV. Furthermore, with four rich electron aromatic heterocycles, the AHTDIs showed 280 mV negative-shifts of first oxidation potentials and a new oxidation wave, corresponding to an increase in the HOMO levels from?-5.60 to?-5.28 eV.
