Abstract
In contrast to the traditional multistep synthesis, we demonstrate herein a two-step synthesis shortcut to triphenylamine-based hole-transporting materials (HTMs) through sequential direct C-H arylations. These hole-transporting molecules are fabricated in perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) that exhibit promising efficiencies up to 17.69 %, which is comparable to PSCs utilizing commercially available 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis[N,N-di(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]-9,9'-spirobifluorene (spiro-OMeTAD) as the HTM. This is the first report describing the use of step-saving C-H activations/arylations in the facile synthesis of small-molecule HTMs for perovskite solar cells.
