Abstract
Bromopyrogallol-red and pyrocatechol-violet, the two triphenylmethane-type ligands, can be readily complexed with [Co(1,10-phen)(2)](2+) moiety. The resulting complexes are capable of enhancing photovoltaic properties when compared with the corresponding ligands. Absorption and photocurrent action spectra suggest that a low-lying weak electronic charge transfer process, possibly a metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) process, is responsible for the enhancement of photovoltaic properties.
