A new series of diacetylide-triphenylamine (DATPA) derivatives with five different alkyl chains in the para position, MeO, EtO, nPrO, iPrO and BuO, were synthesised, fully characterised and their function as hole-transport materials in perovskite solar cells (PSC) studied. Their thermal, optical and electrochemical properties were investigated along with their molecular packing and charge transport properties to analyse the influence of different alkyl chains in the solar cell parameters. The shorter alkyl chain facilitates more compact packing structures which enhanced the hole mobilities and reduced recombination. This work suggests that the molecule with the methoxy substituent (MeO) exhibits the best semiconductive properties with a power conversion efficiency of up to 5.63%, an open circuit voltage (Voc) of 0.83 V, a photocurrent density (Jsc) of 10.84 mA cm-2 and a fill factor of 62.3% in perovskite solar cells. Upon replacing the methoxy group with longer alkyl chain substituents without changing the energy levels, there is a decrease in the charge mobility as well as PCE (e.g. 3.29% for BuO-DATPA). The alkyl chain length of semiconductive molecules plays an important role in achieving high performance perovskite solar cells.

The structural and electronic consequences of π-π and C-H/π interactions in two alkoxy-substituted 1,8-bis- ((propyloxyphenyl)ethynyl)naphthalenes are explored by using X-ray crystallography and electronic structure computations. The crystal structure of analogue 4, bearing an alkoxy side chain in the 4-position of each of the phenyl rings, adopts a π-stacked geometry, whereas analogue 8, bearing alkoxy groups at both the 2- and the 5-positions of each ring, has a geometry in which the rings are splayed away from a π-stacked arrangement. Symmetry-adapted perturbation theory analysis was performed on the two analogues to evaluate the interactions between the phenylethynyl arms in each molecule in terms of electrostatic, steric, polarization, and London dispersion components. The computations support the expectation that the π-stacked geometry of the alkoxyphenyl units in 4 is simply a consequence of maximizing π-π interactions. However, the splayed geometry of 8 results from a more subtle competition between different noncovalent interactions: this geometry provides a favorable anti-alignment of C-O bond dipoles, and two C-H/π interactions in which hydrogen atoms of the alkyl side chains interact favorably with the π electrons of the other phenyl ring. These favorable interactions overcome competing π-π interactions to give rise to a geometry in which the phenylethynyl substituents are in an offset, unstacked arrangement.

We synthesized two series of diphenyl-diacetylene (DPDA)-based materials with alkoxy and alkyl tails of length m (DPDA-OCm and DPDA-Cm, respectively), and measured their nematic-phase birefringence (Δn) as a function of wavelength and temperature. We found that Δn decreases with an increase in m, possibly by a dilution effect of the low-Δn alkyl tail. Further, of the two series, Δn was found to be relatively higher in the DPDA-OCm materials, with the highest value of 0.4 obtained for DPDA-OC1 at 550 nm at 10 °C below the isotropic-to-nematic transition temperature. Further, we observed the temperature dependence for Δn, which is proportional to the order parameter (s). From extrapolation to s = 1 (the perfect orientation state), it is speculated that the DPDA-O moiety has the potential to afford a very large Δn of 0.9. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2012.

experimental part, p. 1302 - 1315 (2010/11/05)
Liquid-crystalline and light-emitting poly(2-alkyne)s containing terphenyl cores with hexamethyleneoxy spacers, and cyano or n-propoxy tails - [CH3C=C(CH2)6O-terphenyl-R] n -, where R=CN, CH3PA6CN, R=OCH2CH 2CH3, CH3PA6OPr, were synthesized. The effects of the substitution and terminal groups on the properties, especially the mesomorphic and optical properties of the polymers, were investigated. The disubstituted acetylene monomers (CH3A6CN, CH3A6OPr) were prepared through multistep reaction routes and were polymerized by WCl6-Ph4Sn in good yields (up to 82%). All the monomers and CH3PA6CN exhibited the enantiotropic SmA phase with a monolayer arrangement at elevated temperatures, whereas CH3PA6OPr formed a bilayer SmAd packing arrangement. Upon excitation at 330 nm, strong UV and blue emission peaks at 362 and 411 nm were observed in CH3PA6OPr and CH3PA6CN, respectively. The luminescent properties of CH3PA6CN and CH3PA6OPr have been improved by introducing the methyl substituted group, and the quantum yield of the polymer with cyano tail CH3PA6CN (Φ = 74%) was found to be higher than that of CH3PA6OPr (Φ = 60%). Compared to polyacetylene parents, both CH3PA6OPr and CH3PA6CN showed a narrower energy gap. This demonstrated that the electrical conductivities of polyacetylenes could be enhanced by attaching appropriate pendants to the conjugated polyene backbones.
