A smart photosensitizer based on a red emitting solution processable porous polymer: generation of reactive oxygen species†
Abstract
A novel approach for the fabrication of a solution processable conjugated porous organic polymer (CzBDP) involving a flexible core composed of carbazole and boron dipyrromethene was developed. The red emitting soluble polymer was found to be an excellent probe for the generation of both singlet oxygen and superoxide anion radicals under visible light irradiation.
