Abstract
A new polycyclic aromatic diimide of pyrene (<bold>PyDI</bold>) bearing six-membered-ring dicarboximide is synthesized. Its conjugated polymer <bold>PyDI-TT</bold> displays an electron mobility of 0.34 cm<sup>2</sup> V<sup>−1</sup> s<sup>−1</sup>, demonstrating <bold>PyDI</bold> to be an excellent building block for high-performance electron-transporting materials.
