Two Ruthenium Complexes with Phenanthroline Ligand for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Abstract:

We report the synthetic route of two ruthenium dye-sensitizers; namely, Ru(4,4-dicarboxylic-2,2-bipyridine)(1,10-phenanthroline)(NCS)₂ (6) and Ru(4,4-dicarboxylic-2,2-bipyridine)(1,10-phenanthroline-5-carboxylic acid)(NCS)₂ (7), which both complexes were characterized by 1H NMR, ¹³C NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopic techniques.
