27. Note that the insolubility of 2 and 4 in toluene prevented any experimental comparison.

31. .-) in ortho-dichlorobenzene, benzonitrile, and DMF, the driving forces for the intramolecular charge separation and charge recombination processes were calculated. The Coulombic terms in the present donor-acceptor systems are neglected due to the relatively large edge-to-edge distance (∼13.5 Å) and the moderate or high polar solvents employed.
32. Also in this case, in toluene, no charge separation was found for dyad 5 and the only product is the long-lived fullerene triplet.
33. Please note that the insolubility given in toluene prevented an experimental comparison.
