A new series of macrocyclic Ni (II) complexes having indolenine and dibenzotetraaza [14] annulene (DBTAA) moieties were synthesized and tested for their application as sensitizers in dye - sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The structures are furnished with anchoring groups of ethyl ester (8a, 8b, and...
