By increasing the number of <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-dimethylaniline moieties, the absorption edge was considerably shifted up to 1200 nm owing to effective acceptor-donor interactions.RSC advances14575-14579https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10177950biostudies-literatureOpen-[60]fullerene-aniline conjugates with near-infrared absorption.PMC10177950Murata YHashikawa YSadai SfalseOpen-[60]fullerene-aniline conjugates with near-infrared absorption.Two open-[60]fullerene-aniline conjugates were synthesized, in which the two-fold addition of diamine gave a thiazolidine-2-thione ring on the [60]fullerene cage in the presence of CS₂.
