  • Title: Fluorescent protein red Kaede chromophore; one-step, high-yield synthesis and potential application for solar cells.
    Author: Chuang WT, Chen BS, Chen KY, Hsieh CC, Chou PT.
    Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2009 Dec 07; (45):6982-4. PubMed ID: 19904368.
    Abstract:
    The one-step condensation between the Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) chromophore and 1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde catalyzed by ZnCl(2) proved to be a facile method to synthesize the red Kaede chromophore and its derivatives (1a-d, 2, and 3 > 70%), among which 1a then demonstrated its potential as a dye in solar cell, with a moderate conversion efficiency (eta) of 3.04%.
