A series of pyrene‐fused azaacenes with four and six linearly fused rings that possess LUMO levels between −3.7 and −4.3 eV is reported. These LUMO values are remarkably lower than those typically observed for pyrene‐fused azaacenes, even for systems with sixteen linearly fused rings, and are comparable to those observed for state‐of‐the‐art n ‐azaacenes.
