The present invention relates to the technical field of synthesis of organic compound, particularly, to a quinoid silafluorene organic semiconductor material, preparation method and use thereof.
The economy all over the world today is built on the basis of fossil fuel, such as coal, oil and natural gas. However, all of these non-reproducible fossil energies are continuously exhausted. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the global energy problems and the consequent problems of environmental pollution and climate warming are becoming more and more prominent and gradually intensified. Because of the outstanding advantages of wide and broad distribution, large scale resources, pollution-free, clean, safe, and easy to obtain, the solar energy is considered to be one of the most promising renewable energy. The solar cell converts the solar energy to electric energy directly, thus it is a practicable method for utilizing the solar energy. However, currently commercial solar cells are all limited to the silicon-based inorganic solar cell, but the cost is so high that people cannot accept it, thus the scope of their use is significantly limited. For a long time, to reduce the cost of the solar cell and expand the range of application, people have been looking for new type of solar cell materials.
The organic solar cell is a new type of solar cell. Compared to the disadvantages of limited source, expensive price, toxic, complicated manufacturing process and high cost of the inorganic semiconductor material, the organic solar cell has the incomparable advantages that the inorganic solar cell doesn't have, such as wide sources of raw materials, a variety of structures and good adjustability, low cost, safety and environmental protection, simple manufacturing process, light weight, possibly to produce in a large flexibly area, and the like, it can be widely used in construction, lighting and power generation and other areas, thus it has an important development and application prospects. Therefore, many domestic and foreign research institutes and enterprises are paying considerable attention and investment to the field of organic solar cell. However, until now, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the organic solar cell is much lower than that of inorganic solar cell. Therefore, the development of new organic photovoltaic materials has much importance for improving the efficiency of organic solar cells and other semiconductor devices.

in ice bath, 0.33 g of malononitrile was added to the suspension of 0.20 g of sodium methoxide in 40 mL of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, then the mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 30 minutes, then 0.84 g of 5,5-dihexyl-3,7-bis(5′-bromo-2,2′-bithiophen-5-yl)-4H-bis(silafluorene) and 0.043 g of PdCl2(PPh3)2 were added, and the resulting mixture was heated at 110° C. for 33 hours, then cooled to 0° C., a saturated Br2/H2O solution was added, then a water was added, and the mixture was vacuum filtered, washed with water, dried, and column chromatographed to give the product, MALDI-TOF-MS (m/z): 805.2 (M+).
1) Preparation of 2,7-bis(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan)-9,9-bis-eicosyl silafluorene, the detailed preparation process is the same as step 2) of Example 2, and its structural formula is as follows:
2) 3,7-bis(4,4′-bis-eicosyl-2,2′-bithiophen-5-yl)-9,9-bis-eicosyl silafluorene, the structure formula and preparation process thereof are as follows:
To a reaction flask containing 9.95 g of 2,7-bis(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan)-9,9-bis-eicosyl silafluorene, 16.20 g of 5-bromo-4,4′-bis-eicosyl-2,2′-bithiophene and 0.55 g of Pd(PPh3)4, 60 mL of aqueous NaHCO3 solution (1 M) and a mixed solvent (100 mL) of diethyl ether and dichloromethane in a volume ratio of 1:1 were added, then the mixture was heated at 85° C. for 32 hours. After the completion of the reaction, the resulting mixture was filtered and dried in vacuo, and column chromatographed to give a solid product, MALDI-TOF-MS (m/z): 2194.0 (M+);
3) 3,7-bis(5′-bromo-4,4′-bis-eicosyl-2,2′-bithiophen-5-yl)-9,9-bis-eicosyl silafluorene, the structural formula and preparation process thereof are as follows:
At 25° C., 0.77 g of NBS was added in batch to a reaction flask containing 2.19 g of 5,5-bis-eicosyl-3,7-bis(4,4′-bis-eicosyl-2,2′-bithiophen-5-yl)-4H-bis(silafluorene) and 40 mL of mixed solvent of tetrahydrofuran and ethyl acetate in a volume ratio of 1:3, then the mixture was stirred for 18 hours. After the completion of the reaction, the fluid mixture was poured into ice water for quenching, then the solution was extracted with chloroform, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, rotary evaporated, and column chromatographed to give the product, MALDI-TOF-MS (m/z): 2351.8 (M+);
4) Preparation of the quinoid silafluorene organic semiconductor material of structural formula I6, the preparation process thereof is as follows:
In ice bath, 0.49 g of malononitrile was added to the suspension of 0.10 g of sodium tert-butoxide (sodium tert-butoxide in an oil solution in 60 wt %) in 20 mL of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, then the mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 40 minutes, and 1.18 g of 5,5-bis-eicosyl-3,7-bis(5′-bromo-4,4′-bis-eicosyl-2,2′-bithiophen-5-yl)-4H-bis(silafluorene) and 0.033 g of PdCl2(PPh3)2 were added, and the mixture was heated at 95° C. for 42 hours, then cooled to 0° C., and a saturated Br2/H2O solution was added, a water was added, then the resulting mixture was vacuum filtered, washed with water, dried, and column chromatographed to give the product, MALDI-TOF-MS (m/z): 2320.1 (M+).
