Photooxidations of the evaporated films of rubrene, naphthacene, and pentacene were investigated by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.A rubrene film was found to be photooxidized far more easily than a naphthacene film although the molecules of ru

The rapid spontaneous photo-oxidation of rubrene to form endo-peroxide, rubrene-Ox1, was monitored via1H NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The reaction is thermally reversible, which restores high mobility devices in both the crystalline thin film and single crystal. Prolonged stirring in chlorinated solvents yields a secondary, irreversible product, rubrene-Ox2, which has lost phenol, as confirmed by single crystal analysis. An acid-catalyzed rearrangement of the endo-peroxide to form rubrene-Ox2 was identified here with Density Functional Theory (DFT). Implications of the nature of these processes for the preparation of organic transistors are described.

This paper describes thin films comprising acenes dispersed in a conjugated polymeric host that have a ratiometric photoluminescence response to singlet oxygen. These films also respond to irradiation of protein-bound sensitizers, which represents a solut
