A 'two-point' bound zinc porphyrin-zinc phthalocyanine-fullerene supramolecular triad for sequential energy and electron transfer

摘要

A novel supramolecular triad composed of a zinc porphyrin-zinc phthalocyanine dyad and fullerenes has been assembled using a 'two-point' axial binding approach, and occurrence of efficient photo-induced energy transfer followed by electron transfer is demonstrated.
