Synthesis of new Schiff bases as materials for the design of photovoltaics cells

Abstract

We describe the synthesis of new organic Schiff bases chromophores 5 containing a rhodanine-3-acetic as electron accepteur moiety. Imines 3 were obtained by a condensation reaction from a lead molecule, the aminothiazolinethione 1 with versatile commercial aldehydes. The structure of all the compounds obtained was determined by the spectroscopic methods (IR, 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR). The study of UV-Vis imines 3 and 5 in methanol exhibit the phenomenon of π delocalized electrons responsible for the bathochromic effect.

Homo- and Hetero-Oligonuclear Complexes of Platinum Group Metals (PGM) Coordinated by Imine Schiff Base Ligands

“…The SB compounds are also used in nanotechnology as coatings for chemical sensing [82] and as supramolecular sensing materials for preparation of potentiometric membrane sensors [83]. The complexes of SBs are applied for production of dye-sensitized solar cells [84][85][86][87]. The utilization of SB complexes including PGM oligomers as energy storage materials for batteries and supercapacitors was summarized by Zhang [88].…”
