Biological Activity
D149 is a metal-free organic dye, which is promising all-organic alternatives. D149 displays power conversion efficiency of up to 9%. Furthermore, D149 has a peak extinction co-efficient of 68700 M-1 cm-1 at 540 nm, significantly higher than 13900 M-1cm-1 at 535 nm for N719[1].
D149, a metal-free indoline dye, is one of the most promising sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and has shown very high solar energy conversion efficiencies of 9%. D149 shows a large number of unresolved aromatic and olefinic signals between 7 and 7.5 ppm[2]

Protocol
The porous TiO2 films are immersed in a 0.5 mM D149 (1-material) dye solution in a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of acetonitrile (HPLC) and tert-butanol (LR) overnight once their temperature decreased to approximately 110°C. The samples are then taken out of the dye bath, washed with acetonitrile, and dried. The working electrode and Pt counter electrode [produced using a pre-drilled piece of 2.3 mm FTO glass, coated with one drop of 10 mM platinic acid solution [H2PtCl6] and heated to 400°C for 20 min] are assembled into a sandwich type cell and sealed with a spacer of 25 μm Surlyn. An I-1/I3-1 organic solvent based electrolyte solution [50 mM iodine, 0.6 M 1,2-dimethyl-3-propylimidazelium iodide, 0.1 M lithium iodide in methoxypropionitrile] is introduced via vacuum back-filling. The hole is sealed with a piece of aluminium foil-backed Surlyn[1].
