Application

  • UV-Vis Spectroscopy and Electrochemical Analysis: Iron(III) acetylacetonate is used in UV-Vis spectroscopy and electrochemical studies to explore its role in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), focusing on the impact of aromatic thienyl groups on the electronic properties of tris(β-diketonato)iron(III) complexes (Conradie MM, 2022).
  • One-Step Synthesis of Nanomaterials: The compound facilitates a one-step synthesis route to produce Fe2O3 and FeSe2 nanoparticles on carbon sheets, enhancing lithium storage capabilities in batteries (Wei D et al., 2022).
