Treatment of perylene bisimides (PBIs) with bls(pinacolato)diboron in the presence of an iridium catalyst provides tetraborylated PBIs at 2,5,8,11-positions in good yields with perfect regioselectivity. The planar structure of the perylene core has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Oxidation of tetraborylated PBI with hydroxylamine hydrochloride affords tetrahydroxy PBI In excellent yield, which exhibits a substantially blue-shifted absorption spectrum due to an Intramolecular hydrogenbonding interaction between carbonyl and hydroxy groups.
