title: A boron dipyrromethene-phthalocyanine pentad as an artificial photosynthetic model.
abstract: A silicon(IV) phthalocyanine with two axial p-phenylene-linked boron dipyrromethene and monostyryl boron dipyrromethene moieties has been prepared. The resulting pentad absorbs strongly in most of the UV-visible region and serves as an artificial photosynthetic antenna-reaction centre model.
