Synthesis of new indolo[3,2-b]carbazoles towards organic photovoltaïcs. KU Leuven
In our laboratory for organic synthesis in Leuven, a lot of synthetic methods have been developed concerning organic polycyclic donor systems such as pentacene, carbazoles and more recently indolo[3,2-b]carbazoles (ICZs). This project is related to the ICZs and will focus on developing new synthetic methodologies to prepare novel building blocks, which will be coupled with known acceptor moieties like diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP), ...
