Abstract

The invention provides an iridium complex, which has a visible light reactivity and can be used for rapidly preparing hydrogen through reduction by catalyzing water by using visible light. The invention further provides a preparation method of the iridium complex, a method for preparing hydrogen by catalyzing and reducing the water by using the visible light by means of the iridium complex and a dye-sensitized solar cell containing the iridium complex. The iridium complex comprises a chemical formula of Ir(L)2Hbpdc, wherein L is 3-trifluoromethyl-2-phenyl benzothiazole, 2-phenyl benzothiazole, 2-phenyl-5-(trifluoromethyl) benzothiazole or 4-N,N dimethyl-phenyl-5-(trifluoromethyl) benzothiazole, and Hbpdc is 4-carboxyl-4'-carboxylate-2,2'-bipyridyl. The preparation method of the iridium complex comprises the steps of: dissolving iridium trichloride and L in a first solvent, reacting to obtain an intermediate product Ir2(L)4Cl2, and reacting the intermediate product with 4-4'-dicarboxylic acid-2,2'-bipyridyl and sodium carbonate to obtain the iridium complex.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention provides an iridium complex, a preparation method thereof, a method for realizing visible light catalytic reduction of water by using the iridium complex, and a prepared dye-sensitized solar cell. Background technique [0002] Since the beginning of the 21st century, the consumption of fossil energy has not only caused an energy crisis, but also severely damaged the environment in which human beings live. Finding and developing environmentally friendly and renewable green energy has become the focus of human attention. Hydrogen energy has the characteristics of clean and pollution-free, high calorific value of hydrogen, good combustion performance, multiple utilization forms, and large storage capacity; solar energy has the characteristics of universal, harmless, and long-term use. They are regarded as the most potential development in the 21st century. clean energy. Whether hydrogen can be widely used as a fuel depends on the hydrogen ...
