Usage

General Description

4-Decyloxy-benzonitrile, also known as 4-decyloxybenzonitrile, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C16H25NO. It is a member of the nitrile family and is composed of a benzene ring with a nitrile group attached to the 4-position and a decyloxy group attached to the benzene ring. 4-DECYLOXY-BENZONITRILE is commonly used in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical research as a building block for the creation of various organic compounds. It is also used as an intermediate in the production of dyes and other specialty chemicals. 4-Decyloxy-benzonitrile is a colorless to light yellow solid at room temperature and is sparingly soluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. It should be handled and stored with proper precautions due to its potential hazardous properties.

New tetrazole based dyes as efficient co-sensitizers for dsscs: Structure-properties relationship

Two new compounds based on the phenyltetrazole system, 5-(4-decyloxyphenyl)tetrazole (LTz-4) and N,N-diethyl-4-{[(2′-nitro-4′-tetrazoyl)phenyl]diazenyl}aniline (SD - 6), were synthesized and characterized as co-adsorbents in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs). The effects of hydrophobic chain length and anchoring group on the properties of DSSCs containing the previously reported dye HD-14 and compared with the benchmark deoxycholic acid (DCA) are described. The charge-transfer resistance of dye/TiO2 interface followed the order HD-14 – SD - 6 > HD-14 – LTz-4 > HD-14 –DCA. However, the VOC for the dye HD-14 with co-adsorbent DCA was 0.71 V, for the and the dye HD-14 with co-adsorbent LTz-4 was 0.70 V and for the dye HD-14 with co-adsorbent SD - 6 was 0.67 V. Co-adsorbents LTz-4 and SD - 6 achieved mean solar-to-power conversion efficiencies (%η), for three devices, of 9.20 and 7.48, respectively, compared to 9.14 for DCA under the same experimental device conditions. For LTz-4 co-adsorbent, the results can be attributed to the repellent effect of the long alkyl chain that prevents the charge recombination on the semiconductor surface. For SD - 6, the molecular volume of the co-adsorbent and the presence of the nitro group in a lateral position should make it difficult to form a more compact layer with the dye. The sum of these contributions would allow the electrolyte to approach, reducing the efficiency of electron injection into TiO2.
