An investigation on single crystal growth, structural, thermal and optical properties of a series of organic D–π–A push–pull materials

We present the large single crystal growth of a series of donor–π–acceptor (D–π–A) push–pull chromophores (1–4). The thermal, structural and optical properties of the synthesized chromophores were explored. These studies indicate the potential opto-electronic application of these push–pull chromophores.
