AbstractAmong many chemical compounds synthesized for third-generation photovoltaic applications, quinoline derivatives have recently gained popularity. This work reviews the latest developments in the quinoline derivatives (metal complexes) for applications in the photovoltaic cells. Their properties for photovoltaic applications are detailed: absorption spectra, energy levels, and other achievements presented by the authors. We have also outlined various methods for testing the compounds for application. Finally, we present the implementation of quinoline derivatives in photovoltaic cells. Their architecture and design are described, and also, the performance for polymer solar cells and dye-synthesized solar cells was highlighted. We have described their performance and characteristics. We have also pointed out other, non-photovoltaic applications for quinoline derivatives. It has been demonstrated and described that quinoline derivatives are good materials for the emission layer of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and are also used in transistors. The compounds are also being considered as materials for biomedical applications.

In this work, four donor–acceptor copolymers, PFDTBTDI-DMO, PFDTBTDI-8, PDBSDTBTDI-DMO, and PDBSDTBTDI-8, based on alternating 2,7-fluorene or 2,7-dibenzosilole flanked by thienyl units, as electron-donor moieties and benzothiadiazole dicarboxylic imide (BTDI) as electron-accepting units, have been designed and synthesized for photovoltaic applications. All polymers were synthesized in good yields via Suzuki polymerization. The impact of attaching two different alkyl chains (3,7-dimethyloctyl vs. n-octyl) to the BTDI units upon the solubilities, molecular weights, optical and electrochemical properties, and thermal and structural properties of the resulting polymers was investigated. PFDTBTDI-8 has the highest number average molecular weight (Mn = 24,900 g·mol−1) among all polymers prepared. Dibenzosilole-based polymers have slightly lower optical band gaps relative to their fluorene-based analogues. All polymers displayed deep-lying HOMO levels. Their HOMO energy levels are unaffected by the nature of either the alkyl substituents or the donor moieties. Similarly, the LUMO levels are almost identical for all polymers. All polymers exhibit excellent thermal stability with Td exceeding 350 °C. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) studies have shown that all polymers have an amorphous nature in the solid state.
