Arylamine Based Photoactive Push-Pull Molecular Systems: A Brief Overview of the Chemistry "Made in Angers"

This mini review aims at taking stock of some arylamine based push-pull chromophores developed in the "Systèmes Conjugués Linéaires" (SCL) group at the University of Angers. Selected examples highlight more than a decade of design principles and strategies implemented to afford simple and accessible soluble molecular donors as active material for organic solar cells (OSCs).
