Synthesis of S1P
An acetonitrile (10 mL) solution of S1P-CHO (0.10
g, 0.22 mmol) and cyanoacetic acid (22 mg, 0.26 mmol)
was refluxed in the presence of piperidine (0.10 mL) for
2 h. After removing the solvent, the residue was purified
by column chromatography using silica gel and di-
chloromethane-methanol (10/1, V/V) as the eluent to
give product S1P (dark-red solid, 70 mg, yield 60%).

Germany) following the literature procedure[2] and de-
posited onto the F-doped tin oxide conducting glass

late) by doctor-blading. The resulted layer photoelec-
trode of 12 μm thickness, was sintered at 500 ℃ for 30
min in air. After the film was cooled to 40 ℃, it was
