Two D ‐π‐A conjugated molecules, BzTCA and BzTMCA , were developed through facile synthetic approaches for dye‐sensitized solar cells. The investigation of the photophysical properties of BzTCA and BzTMCA both in dilute solutions and in thin films indicates that their absorption exhibits a wide coverage of the solar spectrum. The absorption features for BzTCA and BzTMCA commence at about 710 nm in solution, and at about 800 nm in the solid state. The absorption maxima (λmax) for both BzTCA and BzTMCA on TiO2 film are almost the same as those in dilute solution. Their HOMOs and LUMOs were found to partly overlap at the center of these dyes, which guarantees appreciable interactions between the donors and acceptors. The investigation of the performance of dye‐sensitized solar cells fabricated from BzTCA and BzTMCA indicated that the power‐conversion efficiencies are 6.04 % and 4.68 %, respectively, which could be comparable with the normal sensitizer N3. BzTMCA showed lower incident photon‐to‐electron conversion efficiency (IPCE) and Jsc values relative to BzTCA , which is probably because of the weaker driving force of dye regeneration and electron injection process of BzTMCA . The IPCE responsive area reached nearly 800 nm, which provides great potential for further improvement of the photocurrent density and power‐conversion efficiency. Our investigations demonstrate that both dyes BzTCA and BzTMCA could be promising candidates for dye‐sensitized solar cells. 相似文献
Five sesquiterpenes, dehydrocostus lactone (1), santamarine (5), beta-cyclocostunolide (6), 4alpha-hydroxy-4beta-methyldihydrocostol (7) and 10alpha-hydroxyl-artemisinic acid (9), along with four other compounds, beta-sitosterol (2), daucosterol (3), 5-hydroxymethyl-furaldehyde (4), and trans-syingin (8), were isolated and identified from the roots of Saussurea lappa (Compositae). Based on previous reports and our study, sesquiterpene derivatives are common and characteristic constituents of the genus Saussurea. Among the nine compounds obtained, 9 is a new sesquiterpene. It is an artemisinic acid derivative, whose structural skeleton has not been reported for Saussurea species before, but artemisinic acid is a common compound in another Compositae species, Artemisia annua. Dehydrocostus lactone (1) is present in high-content and is a possible bioprecursor of 10alpha-hydroxyartemisinic acid (9). 相似文献
A facile and efficient one‐pot synthesis of 1,4‐dihydropyridines from aldehyde, 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds and ammonium acetate in the presence of Ce(SO4)2‐SiO2 at 80°C under solvent‐free conditions is described. Compared with the classical Hantzsch reaction, this novel method consistently has the advantages of excellent yields and short reaction time. 相似文献
<正>An efficient and novel method for synthesizing 3′,5′-dithio-2′-deoxyguanosine was described.In this method normal guanosine was used as the starting material.A very efficient procedure was used to synthesize 2-O-tosylguanosine 1,which used 0.1 eq.DBTO instead of 2 eq.1 was treated with LTBH to give 9-(2-deoxy-β-D-threo-pentofuranosyl)guanine 2.2 could be easily turned to the target compound. 相似文献
<正>A microwave-assisted solid phase synthesis for endothelin 1 is presented.Reduced endothelin 1 was synthesized efficiently on Wang resin under microwave irradiation using Fmoc/tBu orthogonal protection strategy.The whole peptide was cleaved from the resin and two disulphide bridges were formed under air oxidation at room temperature.The purity and efficiency of synthesizing the peptide is much higher than other methods used before. 相似文献
Phase behavior of ternary system involving surfactant‐like ionic liquid 1‐dodecyl‐3‐methylimidazolium chloride ([C12mim]Cl), water, and nonionic surfactant PEO‐PPO‐PEO block copolymer (Pluronic L64) is investigated at 25°C. Hexagonal (H1) and lamellar liquid crystal phase (Lα) are found in [C12mim]Cl/H2O/L64 system by using polarized optical microscopy (POM), small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) techniques and 2H NMR spectra. The phase structure (H1 phase), which is formed in [C12mim]Cl/H2O binary system, is not changed when L64 with a low concentration is added. However, phase transitions will occur from hexagonal to multiphases of H1 and cubic phases (C), then to Lα+C phases with constant [C12mim]Cl/H2O ratio and increasing L64 concentration. Moreover, at given L64 (5%, 20%) concentration, the lattice parameter of H1 or Lα phase decreases with increasing [C12mim]Cl/H2O ratio. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra indicate that the H‐bonded network comprising an imidazolium ring, chloride ion and water formed in [C12mim]Cl/H2O binary system is disrupted upon addition of L64. This is helpful to the phase transition, due to the decreasing of interfacial curvature induced by dehydration of hydrated layer after the addition of PEO block of L64. 相似文献
Organic small molecules(TPA-BT3T,TPA-PT3T,and TPA-DFBT3T)using triphenylamine as a donor unit,terthiophene as a bridge,and benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole(BT),[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-c]pyridine(PT)or 5,6-difluorobenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole(DFBT)as an acceptor unit were designed and synthesized through Suzuki coupling reactions.These molecules exhibited good thermal stability with decomposition temperatures over 380°C and broad absorption from 300 to 700 nm.Photovoltaic devices were fabricated with these small molecules as donors and PC71BM as an acceptor.The TPA-BT3T based devices exhibited a power conversion efficiency of 2.89%,higher than those of the TPA-PT3T-and TPA-DFBT3T-based devices(1.34%and1.54%respectively).The effects of electron-withdrawing units on absorption,energy level,charge transport,morphology,and photovoltaic properties also were investigated. 相似文献
Study on the stoichiometry and affinity of the arsenicals bound to HSA is an important step toward a better understanding of arsenic toxic effects. After incubation of AsIII or AsV with HSA at the physiological conditions (pH 7.43 and 37 °C), the free arsenicals and arsenic-HSA complexes were separated and detected by the combined techniques of microdialysis and liquid chromatography with hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectroscopy (MD–LC–HGAFS). The decrease of AsIII peak response rather than AsV indicated that HSA reacted with AsIII but not AsV. The binding plots indicated that the binding between HSA and AsIII was in Scatchard pattern when the concentration ratios of AsIII to HSA were ≤1:1. The strong binding sites (n1) were 1.6 and the stability constant (K1) was 1.54 × 106 M−1. When the concentration ratios of AsIII to HSA were >1:1, the binding was in Plasvento pattern with the stability constant K2 ≅ 0 and no specific binding of AsIII with HSA. On the contrary, AsV did not show binding with HSA. The results showed that AsIII reacted with HSA more readily than AsV, which provides a chemical basis for arsenic toxicity.
