Oligothiophenes are highly effective donor materials in solution-processed organic bulk hete­ro­­junc­tion solar cells (BHJSC) reaching efficiencies up to 10%.[1,2] The structural design fre­quent­ly comprises the attachment of acceptor groups such as dicyanovinylene[3] or rho­da­ni­ne[4] at the termini of the oligothiophene back­bone. In this contribution, we now investigate difluorinated 5,6-difluorobenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (DFBT) as acceptor, which was terminally attached to various oligothiophene-based donor units. Synthesis, characterization of the physical properties, and application in solution-pro­ces­sed bulk hete­ro­­junc­tion solar cells is described.
