A new homogeneous fullerenated carbazole polymer has been synthesized,
revealing a new substitution pattern for carbazole and a new photodec
omposition-resistant substitution pattern for fullerenes. The syntheti
c method may be accomplished in one pot via acid catalyzed alkylation.
The new polymer has several unusual photovoltaic, charge storage, and
photoconductivity capabilities. (C) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
