Abstract

A new acrylonitrile derivative 3 (BPCPFA) which offer potential application as organic solar cell material was synthesized with three steps. The structures of the molecules synthesized in these steps were characterized using various spectral analyses. BPCPFA was investigated as an electron acceptor molecule in next generation organic solar cells. Theoretical prediction and experimental studies for photovoltaic performance were performed. Based on these results, it is concluded that BPCPFA with extended conjugated system has good and promising photovoltaic performance with Voc value as 0.96 V.
