Sulfur Ylide

We herein report the development of a regioselective synthetic route to [70]methanofullerenes, which have potential for application as electron acceptors in solution-processed bulk heterojunction solar cells. Sterically hindered sulfur ylide, generated in situ from their corresponding sulfonium salts in the presence of 1,8-diazabicy­clo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) as the base, smoothly reacted with [70]fullerene to afford the α-type [6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric acid methyl ester ([70]PCBM) in high purity (up to 98%). Furthermore, we successfully demonstrated the gram-scale synthesis of [70]PCBM.

Pet Substrate

Bulk-heterojunction solar cells were fabricated based on poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) on an indium tin oxide (ITO) coated flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. Performance improvements of the flexible solar cells by optimizing post thermal annealing conditions are reported. The solar cells annealed at 150 oC showed the minimal deformation of the PET substrate, and the resulted conversion efficiency was 1.35% under the light irradiation conditions of the Superscript textAM1.5 simulated solar intensity of 100 mW/cm2.
