- Abstract
Solvent polarity decides! β‐[70]‐PCFM fullerenes ([6,6]‐Phenyl‐C61‐Formic acid Methyl ester) are formed as the major product in the reaction of C70 with sulfonium salts, affording a mixture of α‐ and β‐site isomers in good yields. Amazingly, the preference for the α‐ or β‐site isomer can be efficiently controlled by means of the solvent polarity! [70]PCFMs are very efficient in passivating the voids/pin‐holes and/or deep slits in bulk heterojunction perovskite solar cells, with efficiencies around 20 %, depending on the isomeric fullerene composition. More information can be found in the Communication by S. M. Zakeeruddin, M. Grätzel, N. Martín, et al. on page 3224.
