Description

2-(4-Methoxybenzoyl)thiophene is a functional group that is an acceptor. It is used in solar cells, where it interacts with the electron donating group to form a charge transfer complex. This complex aids in the conversion of light into electricity. The efficiency of these devices can be improved by using fullerenes, which are electron accepting and electron donating groups. 2-(4-Methoxybenzoyl)thiophene's interaction with other functional groups, such as phenylsulfonyl chloride, has been shown to produce electronic interactions in solar cells.
