Twisted up : Perchlorination of perylene diimide afforded an exceptionally electron‐poor organic semiconductor molecule (see picture; C black, Cl green, O red, N blue, H white) that crystallizes in an ideal brickstone arrangement with close π–π and chlorine–chlorine contacts. Vapor‐deposited thin films of this molecule show excellent transistor performance, even in air ( μ ≈0.8 cm 2 V −1 s −1 , I on / I off ≈10 8 ).
