Title:
NOVEL AMINO GROUP-CONTAINING AROMATIC COMPOUND, AND SENSITIZING DYE FOR PHOTOELECTRIC CONVERSION, CONTAINING THE AROMATIC COMPOUND
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/056567
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This invention provides an aromatic compound containing an amino group at its end represented by formula (1): (1) wherein R1, R2, R4, and R5 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted monovalent organic residue, provided that R1 and R2 together may form a ring and R1 and/or R2, together with X, may form a ring; and R3 represents an anchor group which can be linked to an inorganic porous material having semiconductor properties. By virtue of the specific partial structure, the above aromatic compoud has a broad absorption band in a visible range and can be used as photofunctional materials, particularly sensitizing dyes for photoelectric conversion. In particular, the use of the aromatic compound in dye-sensitized photoelectric conversion batteries can realize the provision of photoelectric conversion batteries having high photoelectric conversion efficiency and high stability.
