Abstract


Novel organic dyes containing pyridine ring as the anchoring group with carbazole or triphenylamine substituents were synthesized from available 4-(2-thienyl)pyrimidine using the Kost–Sagitullin rearrangement and Suzuki cross coupling assisted by microwave irradiation. The photophysical (absorption and photoluminescence spectra) and electrochemical properties of these compounds were investigated. The data from quantum calculations show that all of the dyes are potentially good photosensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells.
