| 3-Hexylthiophene Usage And Synthesis |
Description | 3-Hexylthiophene is the intermediate for the synthesis of poly(3-hexylthiophene), referred as P3HT. To date, it is the most studied polymer for polymer solar cells. The efficiency of a P3HT/PCBM solar cell is typically 4-5 %, but with new fullerene materials developed to closely match the energy levels of P3HT (HOMO 5.0 eV, LUMO 3.0 eV), device performances have been pushed to 6.5%. | Chemical Properties | colorless transparent or light yellow liquid | Uses | 3-n-Hexylthiophene is a conducting polymer precursor. may be used in the synthesis of poly(3-hexylthiophene). MgKR X-ray and low energy electron induced oligomerization of physisorbed layers of 3-hexylthiophene condensed on clean gold results in the formation of an organic film. | Uses | 3-Hexylthiophene may be used as starting reagent in the synthesis of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanofibres have been used for the preparation of organic phototransistors (OPTs). | Preparation | The 2,5-dibromo-3-dodecylthiophene was dissolved in tetrahydromyran, added with methylmagnesium bromide, preheated and added with catalyst for reaction reaction was injected into alcohol solvent, and hexane was added to remove the copolymer, and then the mixture was soxhlet filtered using chloroform, and the chloroform layer was evaporated and concentrated to obtain a purple membrane; the purple membrane was vacuum filtered to obtain the product 3-hexylthiophene. | General Description | 3-Hexylthiophene, a sulfur containing heterocyclic building block, is a thiophene derivative. Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanofibres have been used for the preparation of organic phototransistors (OPTs). |
