Facile synthesis of a flexible tethered porphyrin dimer that preferentially complexes fullerene C70.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple, high yield, two-step synthesis yields a porphyrin dimer linked by a flexible dithiol tether that preferentially binds fullerene C(70) over C(60) in toluene solution. The complex forms stable aggregates when cast on glass.

Cyclic metalloporphyrin dimers and tetramers: tunable shape-selective hosts for fullerenes.
Covalently linked cyclic metalloporphyrin dimers and tetramers have been demonstrated to be good shape-selective hosts for fullerene guests. The fullerene affinities of these hosts can readily be tuned by modulating the covalent linkage and the metal ions in the porphyrin subunits. A rigid Zn(porphyrin) dimer with conjugated bis(alkynyl) linkers exhibits a high selectivity towards C(70) over C(...
متن کاملThe electronic structure and charge transfer excited states of the endohedral trimetallic nitride C80 (I(h)) fullerenes-Zn-tetraphenyl porphyrin dyads.
Endohedral fullerenes offer the possibility of tuning their properties through a choice of the endohedral unit. The Sc3N@C80 fullerene is the most abundant fullerene after C60 and C70. Recently, Sc3N@C80 has been tested for light harvesting properties with encouraging results. In this work, we study the electronic structure of three endohedral fullerene-Zn tetraphenyl porphyrin complexes using ...

متن کاملPhotocurrent generation from porphyrin/fullerene complexes assembled in a tethered lipid bilayer.
A modular photocurrent generation system, based on amphiphilic porphyrin and fullerene species assembled in a tethered lipid bilayer matrix, is reported here. The key findings are (1) the amount of photoactive species can be quantitatively controlled in each leaflet of the bilayer and (2) the sequential formation of the bilayer allows a directional organization of these agents on electrodes. Ph...
متن کاملPlanar perovskite solar cells using fullerene C70 as electron selective transport layer
Owing amongst other to its high electron mobility, fullerene C70, has been widely used as an electron transporting layer in organic solar cells. In this research, we report the use of C70 thin films as electron transport layers of planar perovskite solar cells (PSCs) using a conventional device structure. The thickness of the C70 layer has been optimized to achieve the best efficiency of 12%. I...
