Bifunctional Nitrogen-Rich Heterocyclic Compounds: Synthesis, Photoluminescence and Energetic Properties

Nitrogen-rich heterocyclic frameworks have attracted enormous interest in organic chemistry and materials science. However, their potential for developing photoluminescent materials remains underexplored due to their relatively low molecular stabilities. In this work, two tricyclic fused nitrogen-rich fluorescent heterocycles were synthesized and characterized. The photophysical properties of the synthesized 4 and 5 were investigated through theoretical and experimental studies. In addition, their physicochemical and energetic properties and the performance as an additive to the perovskite absorption layer of the perovskite solar cell were also studied.
