Synthesis and Photophysics Characterization of Boronic Styril and Distyryl BODIPYs for Water-Based Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

In this study, two boronic acid BODIPYs are obtained through a microwave-assisted Knoevenagel reaction. The aim is to use them for the first time as dyes in a photosensitized solar cell (DSSC) to mimic chlorophyll photosynthesis, harvesting solar light and converting it into electricity. The microwa...
