Bw. Jiang et al., CONJUGATED PORPHYRIN POLYMERS - CONTROL OF CHROMOPHORE SEPARATION BY OLIGOPHENYLENEVINYLENE BRIDGES, Chemistry of materials, 9(10), 1997, pp. 2031
A series of new porphyrin polymers in which the porphyrin units are li
nked by a variety of controllable oligophenylenevinylene bridges has b
een synthesized. The new materials are soluble and thermally stable wi
th strong fluorescence properties that suggest limited electronic comm
unication between the chromophore and conjugated bridge in solution.
