The electron acceptor building block for π-conjugated copolymers, 3, 6-dithiophen-2-yl- diketopyrrolo [3, 2-b] pyrrole (isoDPPT), was synthesized following two routes. The comparison between isoDPPT and widely investigated 3, 6-dithiophen-2-yl-diketopyrrolo [3, 4-c] pyrrole (DPPT) in terms of molecular orbital computations, single crystal X-ray diffraction, optical absorption and cyclic voltammogram was utilized to elucidate structural ...
