The chemical-industrial production of organic semiconductors urgently needs a cheap and fast approach to determine the components’ proportion of the reaction system. In the present work, the Gaussian peak fitting method was applied to process monobromo and dibromo-substituted perylene diimide mixed solutions’ ultraviolet-visible absorption curves. The functional relationship formula between the peak-intensity ratio and the component ratio is then concluded. Finally, field experiments of the perylene imide brominating reaction can be used to confirm that such a formula is able to accurately calculate the proportion of ingredients in the synthesis reaction solution system.
