Abstract

Oxasmaragdyrin boron complexes were prepared and applied in DSSCs. The HOMO–LUMO energy gap analyses and theoretical calculations revealed that these expanded porphyrins are ideal sensitizers for DSSCs. A device containing oxasmaragdyrin–BF2 as the sensitizer achieves an energy conversion efficiency of 5.7%.
