A glycyl-substituted porphyrin as a starting compound for the synthesis of a pi-pi-stacked porphyrin-fullerene dyad with a frozen geometry.
A synthetic route for obtaining a porphyrin-fullerene dyad with a constrained geometry forcing the [60]fullerene sphere to lie on the porphyrin plane is reported, revealing a strong interaction in the ground state between the two chromophores.
