We report dinaphtho[1,2-b:2',1'-d]-chalcogenophenes as a new class of highly potential p-type semiconductors. As the result of comprehensive investigations including computational studies based on single-crystal structures successfully determined by X-ray analysis, the impacts of the chalcogen atoms are substantially manifested in their molecular orbitals, crystal packing structures, charge-transporting properties, and the device performances at the end. Among them, dinaphtho[1,2-b:2',1'-d]thiophene and dinaphtho[1,2-b:2',1'-d]selenophene achieved a hole mobility of up to 1.6 and 2.0 cm(2) V-1 s(-1), respectively, accompanied by an I-on/I-off ratio as high as 10(4)-10(5) in their single-crystal organic field-effect transistors. Such high performances are attributed to the large orbital coefficient on the chalcogen atoms and the ideal packing structures induced by chalcogen-bridged W-shaped molecules.
