A series of 1,7‐bis(perfluorophenyl)substituted perylenebis(dicarboximides) were synthesized by Cu‐mediated Ullmann coupling of bromopentafluorobenzene with 1,7‐dibromoperylenebis(dicarboximides) ( Scheme ). The photophysical and electrochemical properties of these dyes were investigated with regard to their potential use as building blocks in organic photovoltaics (OPV) or organic field‐effect transistors (OFET).
