Abstract
Synthetic organic chemists endeavor to develop new reaction conditions, improve product yields, and enhance atom economy (synthetic methodologies), whereas the material scientists strive to create novel functional molecules/structures, increase device stabilities, and promote power conversion efficiencies via device engineering (organic optoelectronics). However, these two prominent research fields seem to have no intersections. Since joining national central university in 2012, our research philosophy aims to narrow, or rather to bridge the gap between synthetic methodologies and π-functional organic materials. In contrast to using multistep synthetic approaches based on Suzuki- or Stille coupling reactions, this personal account describes various step-saving and viable synthesis-shortcuts developed by our group, to access thiophene-based small molecules for optoelectronic applications. We expect these succinct and user-friendly alternative pathways designed by synthetic chemists would help material scientists to reach their target molecules in a more step-economical manner.

Abstract
With the depletion of fossil energy, solar energy has gradually attracted people's attention. Dye-sensitized solar cells have developed rapidly in recent years due to their low cost and high conversion efficiency. In this article, based on the theoretical research on the photovoltaic parameters of DSSCs in the early stages of the research team, we have made an accurate prediction of J sc, V oc, and PCE of C286. (The error in our predicted PCE values was 3.33% relative to the experiment.) Also, we further designed a series of new dyes CH1-CH5 by introducing donors and co-acceptors with C286-C288 as the prototype using the DFT/TDDFT method. The PCE of the designed dyes CH2-CH5 exceed the given dye C286, especially the CH3 and CH4 obtained the PCE of 26.2 and 14.5%. This indicates the proposed dyes offer a dramatic improvement on PCE for DSSC devices. Moreover, the designed dyes such as CH3 and CH4 have great potential to be applied to photovoltaic applications, further enabling the design of novel, highly efficient photoactive materials.

Abstract
Direct C-H arylation coupling is potentially a more economical and sustainable process than conventional cross-coupling. However, this method has found limited application in the synthesis of organic dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells. Although direct C-H arylation is not an universal solution to any cross-coupling reactions, it efficiently complements conventional sp2−sp2 bond formation and can provide shorter and more efficient routes to diketopyrrolopyrrole dyes. Here, we have applied palladium catalyzed direct C-H arylation in the synthesis of five new 3,6-dithienyl diketopyrrolopyrrole dyes. All prepared sensitizers display broad absorption from 350 nm up to 800 nm with high molar extinction coefficients. The dye-sensitized solar cells based on these dyes exhibit a power conversion efficiency in the range of 2.9 to 3.4%.

Abstract
A novel ladderlike fused-ring donor, dithienocyclopentacarbazole (DTCC) derivative, is used to design and synthesize three novel donor-acceptor-π-acceptor-type organic dyes (C1-C3) via facile direct arylation reactions, in which the DTCC derivative substituted by four p-octyloxyphenyl groups is served as the electron donor and the carboxylic acid group is used as the electron acceptor or anchoring group. To fine-tune the optical, electrochemical, and photovoltaic properties of the three dyes, various auxiliary acceptors, including benzo[2,1,3]thiadiazole (BT), 5,6-difluorobenzo[2,1,3]thiadiazole (DFBT), and pyridal[2,1,3]thiadiazole (PT), are incorporated into the dye backbones. The results indicate that all of the three dyes exhibit strong light-capturing ability in the visible region and obtain relatively high molar extinction coefficients (>31 000 M-1 cm-1) due to their strong charge transfer (CT) from donor to acceptor. Moreover, theoretical model calculations demonstrate fully separated highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels for the three dyes, which is helpful for efficient charge separation and electron injection. Using the three dyes as sensitizers, conventional dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on liquid iodide/triiodide redox electrolytes are fabricated. Our results indicate that the BT-containing dye C1 affords the highest power conversion efficiency of up to 6.75%, much higher than that of the DFBT-containing dye C2 (5.40%) and the PT-containing dye C3 (1.85%). To our knowledge, this is the first example reported in the literature where the DTCC unit has been used to develop novel organic dyes for DSSC applications. Our work unambiguously demonstrates that the ladderlike DTCC derivatives are the superb electron-donating blocks for the development of high-performance organic dyes.
