Insights into the electrochemical properties of benzothiadiazole covalently bound to different pyridine substituents Carlos Enrique Torres-Méndez & Haining Tian Physical Chemistry, Department of Chemistry-Ångström Laboratory, Uppsala University, Box 523, 75120, Uppsala, Sweden Among heterocyclic molecules, benzothiadiazoles excel for their remarkable electron storage capabilities. Benzothiadiazoles have found an important place as building blocks to create conductive polymers, porous organic frameworks and push-pull dyes with benzothiadiazole as the electron acceptor unit. Their use in electrocatalysis remains scarce. 1,2 Special interest exists in our group regarding the tuning of the chemical space around benzothiadiazole in order to promote new reactivities and study alternative mechanistic paths that open new venues in catalysis. In this poster we will present recent efforts in our group where pyridine-based substituents have been introduced in close proximity to benzothiadiazole via covalent bonds. The electrochemical properties of a series of molecules are studies by traditional electrochemical measurements and their potential in electrocatalysis is explored. References
