Page/Page column 34, (2012/02/05)
A compound that can be used as a donor material in organic photovoltaic devices comprising a non-activated porphyrin fused with one or more non-activated polycyclic aromatic rings or one or more non-activated heterocyclic rings can be obtained by a thermal fusion process. By heating the reaction mixture of non-activated porphyrins with non-activated polycyclic aromatic rings or heterocyclic rings to a fusion temperature and holding for a predetermined time, fusion of one or more polycyciic rings or heterocyclic rings to the non-activated porphyrin core in meso,β fashion is achieved resulting in hybrid structures containing a distorted porphyrin ring with annulated aromatic rings. The porphyrin core can be olygoporphyrins.

(Figure Presented) Sticking together: Direct fusion of pyrene rings with diporphyrins can be achieved without prior activation of aromatic rings. This simple method gives pyrene-diporphyrin hybrids (see picture, C (pyrene) red, C (porphyrin) dark blue, N light blue, Zn green) with a high near-infrared (NIR) absorption that reaches the wavelengths required for use in telecommunications.
