• Engineering, Czestochowa University of Technology, Armii Krajowej 17, Czestochowa, 42-200, Poland 10.3762/bjoc.13.235 Abstract Nine new quadrupolar chromophores based on diketopyrrolopyrrole were designed and prepared by cross-coupling reactions. The property tuning has been achieved by structural variation
