Synthesis of fully fused tetrapyrazinoporphyrazine polymers bearing three-dimensional structures controlled by steric repulsion†
Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of fused aromatic networks composed of zinc tetrapyrazinoporphyrazines are reported. The steric repulsion of bulky substituents induced the formation of three-dimensional structures. Thus-obtained insoluble polymers adsorbed CO2 and had near-infrared absorption indicating their porosity and extended π-conjugation.
