Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic solar cell technology, specifically to a polymerizable crosslinkable small molecule non-fullerene acceptor and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Driven by the advantages of wide solar spectrum coverage and low charge carrier recombination loss, polymer solar cells based on narrow-bandgap non-fullerene small molecule acceptors have developed rapidly in recent years, with single-junction power conversion efficiencies exceeding 18%. Typical NFA molecules often employ acceptor-donor-acceptor (A–D–A) or A–D–A–D–A fusion framework structures (such as ITIC and Y6), utilizing intramolecular charge transfer between donor and acceptor units to adjust the spectral absorption range and energy level positions. The π–π stacking of the terminal indanedione acceptor units provides electron transport channels. Typically, the synthetic route first constructs a fusion-ring donor intermediate, then introduces an acceptor unit with an activated methylene terminal (such as 1,1-dicyanbenzylidene indole-3-one) to the molecule's end via Knoevenagel condensation to achieve high-efficiency photoelectric conversion. However, these traditional NFA monomers cannot be further cross-linked and cured after film formation, resulting in film morphology that fluctuates easily with changes in heat, light, or ambient humidity, thus limiting device stability and durability.

[0003] Although some studies have attempted to improve morphological stability by using polymerizable small molecule acceptors or by adding solid additives and solvents, these methods rely on external components or prepolymerized products and cannot fundamentally solve the problems of excessive aggregation of NFA molecules and short device lifetime. Summary of the Invention

The technical problem to be solved by this invention is: how to achieve high-yield, high-purity preparation with fewer steps by one-step integration and synthesis through side chain functionalization and coupling with the donor backbone, and by having photo / thermal crosslinkable groups.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a polymerizable crosslinkable small molecule non-fullerene receptor, comprising: The receptor molecule is composed of at least two terminal receptor motifs A and a central donor motif D connected in a conjugated backbone manner. The terminal receptor motif A is a cyano-substituted indanedione derivative; The central donor unit D is a fused ring donor unit, the skeleton of which is selected from indododithiophene or dithiophene, and the central donor unit D introduces a polymerizable functional group P at the end of at least one alkyl side chain.

[0007] Preferably, the terminal acceptor motif A and the central donor motif D are connected by an acetylene bridge, and the polymeric active functional group P is selected from acrylate, methacrylate, alkynyl, maleic anhydride, or styrene groups. The polymeric active functional group P forms a three-dimensional network structure through free radical polymerization crosslinking under ultraviolet light irradiation.

[0008] A method for preparing polymerizable crosslinkable small molecule non-fullerene receptors includes: S1. Take an indolodithiophene or dithiophenothiophene skeleton compound containing a hydroxyl side chain, and halogenate the hydroxyl side chain using a mixture of phosphorus pentachloride and phosphorus trichloride to convert the end of the side chain to bromine or iodine, to obtain a halogenated donor intermediate of general formula I. The yield of this step can reach 85% to 90%. S2. The intermediate of general formula I is reacted with sodium azide in dimethylformamide solution at 60 degrees Celsius for 8 to 12 hours to generate the intermediate of general formula II with azide-terminated side chain. Then, at room temperature, the intermediate of general formula II is reacted with acetylenol acrylate in a 1:1 mixture of THF and water catalyzed by copper sulfate hydrate and reduced ascorbic acid to obtain the intermediate of general formula III with acrylate side chain. S3. The general formula III intermediate, cyanoindanone-phenylboronic acid ester, tetra(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) catalyst and potassium carbonate were added to a 3:1 mixture of THF and water. The mixture was heated to 75 degrees Celsius and stirred for 6 hours under nitrogen protection to complete the Suzuki coupling reaction and directly construct the A–D–A skeleton general formula IV intermediate containing terminal acceptor units and side chain polymer groups. S4. The intermediate of general formula IV was refluxed with activated methylene indanedione in a mixed solution of piperidine and ethanol for 4 to 5 hours to induce Knoevenagel condensation and generate the target polymerizable crosslinkable small molecule nonfullerene receptor of general formula V. S5. The product of general formula V was subjected to column chromatography using dioxane and ethyl acetate as the mobile phase to obtain a final product with a chemical purity of not less than 98%, and then... 1 H / 13 CNMR, HR-MS, and GPC were used to verify the structure and molecular weight distribution of the final product.

[0009] Preferably, the general formula I is a halogenated donor intermediate, specifically: X–R–D–R–X Wherein, D represents the indododithiophene or dithiophene-dithiophene fused ring conjugated donor skeleton, and R represents C6–C 12 Straight-chain alkyl or alkoxy, where X represents a halogen Br or I; The general formula II is an azide intermediate, specifically: N3–R–D–R–X In general formula I, a terminal halogen X of a side chain is replaced by NaN3 with an azide group N3; The general formula III is a polymeric group-introduced intermediate, specifically: P–R–D–R–X In general formula II, the N3–R side chain is coupled to acetylenic acrylate via the Cu(I) reaction, converting the azide group N3 to the acrylate group P.

[0010] The general formula IV is an intermediate of the A–D–A skeleton, specifically: A—CH=CH—D—CH=CH—A After Suzuki coupling of general formula III with cyanoindanedione-phenylboronic acid ester, a terminal acceptor unit A is attached to each end of the donor backbone D, and the side chain carries a P group.

[0011] Preferably, the receptor molecule is irradiated with light of wavelength 365 nm for 10–15 minutes, causing the polymeric active functional group P to undergo free radical chain polymerization and crosslinking.

[0014] This invention provides a polymerizable crosslinkable small molecule non-fullerene receptor and its preparation method. It has the following beneficial effects: This polymerizable crosslinkable small molecule nonfullerene acceptor and its preparation method greatly simplify the synthetic route by combining side chain functionalization and donor backbone construction into a few steps, reducing the number of intermediate purification and separation steps. Under mild Pd(0) and Cu(I) catalytic conditions, the polymerizable active functional group P can be completely tolerated without side reactions, and no additional protection-deprotection operation is required. The overall process steps are concentrated, and the cumulative yield is 20%–30% higher than that of the traditional multi-step route, and the purity of the final product is ≥98%, which can be efficiently prepared under conventional laboratory conditions.
