Supramolecular complex composed of a covalently linked zinc porphyrin dimer and fulleropyrrolidine bearing two axially coordinating pyridine entities.
A zinc porphyrin dimer-fullerene supramolecular complex with a large association constant is assembled; efficient intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer from the singlet excited state of zinc porphyrin to the fullerene is observed.
