Two regioisomeric triads D-A1-D and D-A2-D composed of benzodithiophene donors and BODIPY acceptors were synthesized and exhibited spectral coverage up to 700 nm due to efficient intramolecular charge transfer. Structural differences and planarity of these triads lead to distinct photoinduced electron transfer characteristics and charge carrier mobilities of up to ∼10-4 cm2 V-1 s-1. © 2016 The Royal Society of Chemistry.
