More positive reduction potentials with increasing molecular length characterize the title compounds (see drawing below, n = 0,1). Their physical and chemical properties, in particular the facile reduction that was investigated with cyclic voltammetry, make them promising candidates for the development of molecular electronic and photonic devices.
