The Photoisomerization Pathway(s) of Push‐Pull Phenylazoheteroarenes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Sergio Vela Llausi

Azoheteroarenes are the most recent derivatives targeted to further improve the properties of azo‐based photoswitches. Their light‐induced mechanism for trans‐cis isomerization is assumed to be very similar to that of the parent azobenzene. As such, they i ...

Photocatalysis with organic dyes: facile access to reactive intermediates for synthesis

Jérôme Waser, Marion Marie-Agnès Garreau, Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos, Luca Buzzetti

Organic dyes have emerged as a reliable class of photoredox catalysts. Their great structural variety combined with the easy finetuning of their electronic properties has unlocked new possibilities for the generation of reactive intermediates. In this revi ...

Dyes, Radicals and Nitrous Oxide Adducts Derived from N-Heterocyclic Carbenes

Léonard Yannick Maurice Eymann

N-Heterocyclic carbenes are able to form covalent adducts with nitrous oxide (N2O) under ambient conditions. This thesis summarizes the studies of these adducts and their reactivity. A ditopic carbanionic N-heterocyclic carbene was found to react with nit ...

Effect of Chaotropes on the Transfer of Ions and Dyes across the Liquid–Liquid Interface

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov, Grégoire Clément Gschwend, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier, Elena Vladimirova

Chaotropes such as urea can break the structure of water, weakening the hydrophobic effect and reducing aggregation. Here, we investigated how the addition of urea affects the transfer of ions and cationic dyes across the interface between immiscible elect ...

Photoanode/Electrolyte Interface Stability in Aqueous Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Guido Viscardi

O'Regan and Gratzel conceived a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), which operates as an artificial photosynthetic system converting solar light into electricity. Nevertheless, it is only recently that the scientific community is focusing on truly aqueous DS ...

A study of oligothiophene-acceptor dyes in p-type dye-sensitized solar cells

Lei Zhang, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Peng Liu

Two new dyes, E1 and E2, equipped with triphenylamine as the electron donor, oligothiophene as the linker and different electron acceptor groups, have been designed and synthesized as photosensitizers for p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-DSCs). A syste ...
