Demand for green and renewable energy is stimulating research into future materials for energy production. Thin films of materials possessing both electron accepting and donating functions play a unique role in solar energy technology because of their light weight, flexibility, and economical, low-temperature, and large-area fabrication. A [60]fullerene derivative, [6,6]-2-selenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (SeCBM), has been synthesized in three steps, namely through Friedel–Crafts acylation of selenophene, hydrazone formation and Bamford-Steven reaction. Organic photovoltaic device incorporating SeCBM and the conducting polymer P3HT exhibited an average power conversion efficiency of 3.26% and a champion efficiency as high as 3.81% under AM 1.5G irradiation.

► We synthesized 1-(3-methoxycarbonyl)propyl-2-selenyl-[6,6]-methanofullerene (SeCBM) as a n-Type Material for Organic Solar Cells.
► SeCBM displays similar UV–Vis absorption pattern as that of ThCBM and show hypsochromic shifts as compared to that of PCBM in the visible region.
► SeCBM exhibits similar LUMO energy level as its sulfur analogue ThCBM and lower energy level than that of PCBM.
► Thin film consisting of SeCBM/P3HT exhibited an average power conversion efficiency of 3.26% and a champion efficiency as high as 3.81% under AM 1.5G irradiation.
