Abstract
A series of novel dyes are designed by adding a carboxylic acid group (ZnPz01), methylene malonic acid substituent (ZnPz02), cyanoacrylic acid (ZnPz03), rhodanine-3-acetic acid (ZnPz04) and cyanoacrylic acid substituted rhodanine derivative (ZnPz05) at the 6th position of the isoindole unit of synthesized TT112 dye. Using wb97Xd/6-31g**, DFT and TDFT computations were performed after the functional are systematically benchmarked. This study elucidates how intramolecular hydrogen bonding in acceptors affects the properties of porphyrin sensitizers for DSSCs, with ZnPz04 rhodanine-3-acetic acid demonstrating optimal characteristics due to enhanced acceptor contribution to the LUMO and increased ICT, resulting in favorable energy levels and optical properties for DSSC applications. Additionally, the study underscores the significant impact of substituted anchoring groups on various optical properties and electronic characteristics, including B:Q band ratio, extinction coefficients, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, and planarity, influencing overall efficiency and performance.
