Embodiment 1

[0030] 1) Synthesis of 2-hydroxy-2-(4-methylphenyl)acetic acid

[0031] Add 4-methylbenzaldehyde (0.1 mol), chloroform (0.2 mol) and benzyltriethylammonium chloride (0.2 mol) with a molar ratio of 1: 2: 2 in a 250 mL three-necked flask, and then slowly 5 mL of 50% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution was added dropwise, and the temperature was controlled at 52 ℃ to react for 7 h. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was poured into 50 mL deionized water to dilute, and extracted twice with ether. The aqueous layer was acidified with sulfuric acid to pH 1, and then extracted twice with ether. After the ether was evaporated from the extract, it was vacuum dried to obtain 2-hydroxy-2-(4-methylphenyl)acetic acid with a yield of 91%.

Abstract

The invention relates to a copolymer donor material for an optically active layer of a polymer solar cell (PSC) and a preparation method of the copolymer donor material. The structural formula of the compound is shown in the specification, wherein n ranges from 3 to 10. According to the method, synthesis steps are simple and mild, raw materials for synthesis are cheap, and preparation cost is low. The obtained copolymer is good in thermal stability (namely half decomposing temperature is higher than 300 DEG C), is good in photoelectric property and dissolving property, and is suitable for being used as the active layer material of the PSC; as the copolymer donor material has a low band gap (1.85eV), electronic transition energy is lowered while the light absorption scope of the material is enlarged to 200-700nm; as the material has a large rigid conjugate structure, the intensity of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) is enhanced while intermolecular pi-pi accumulation in a solid structure is increased, and thus the copolymer donor material can replace a traditional material for the optically active layer of the PSC.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a copolymer donor material for a photoactive layer of a polymer solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid increase in the global demand for energy, solar energy, as a rich, renewable, and clean energy source, has received widespread attention. Solar cells with photoelectric conversion performance have become a research focus that has attracted worldwide attention. Today's solar cells can be divided into inorganic and organic solar cells. Although inorganic solar cells have a relatively high market share and photoelectric conversion efficiency, their own shortcomings, such as high production costs, high energy consumption, poor processing performance, and complex production processes, restrict their further development. Organic solar cells have attracted widespread attention in the scientific and industrial circles due to their advantages of light weight, low cost, and solution proces...
