Porphyrin compounds exist widely in nature and are a key part of photosynthesis and photosynthesis. Because of its good photothermal stability and many unique physical and chemical properties, it has been widely used in the research and development of sensitized dye solar cells. As a new type of solar cell, dye-sensitized solar cell has attracted extensive attention and research due to its simple manufacturing process, relatively cheap price, high photoelectric conversion efficiency and environmental protection. In this paper, control experiments were carried out to synthesize tetrabenzoporphyrin with higher yield and purity by changing the solvent and washing solvent. The samples were characterized by uv-vis spectra. The results showed that the tetraphenylporphyrin crystals with better comprehensive effect could be obtained by using ethanol solution as sample solution and distilled water as washing solvent.
