▎ 摘　　要

Graphene doped with heteroatoms such as nitrogen, boron, and phosphorous by replacing some of the skeletal carbon atoms is emerging as an important class of two-dimensional materials as it offers the much-needed bandgap for optoelectronic applications and provides better access for chemical functionalization at the heteroatom sites. Covalent grafting of photosensitizers onto such doped graphenes makes them extremely useful for light-induced applications. Herein, we report the covalent functionalization of N-doped graphene (NG) with two well-known electron donor photosensitizers, namely, zinc porphyrin (ZnP) and zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc), using the simple click chemistry approach. Covalent attachment of ZnP and ZnPc at the N-sites of NG in NG-ZnP and NG-ZnPc hybrids was confirmed by using a range of spectroscopic, thermogravimetric and imaging techniques. Ground- and excited-state interactions in NG-ZnP and NG-ZnPc were monitored by using spectral and electrochemical techniques. Efficient quenching of photosensitizer fluorescence in these hybrids was observed, and the relatively easier oxidations of ZnP and ZnPc supported excited-state charge-separation events. Photoinduced charge separation in NG-ZnP and NG-ZnPc hybrids was confirmed by using the ultrafast pump-probe technique. The measured rate constants were of the order of 10(10) s,(-1) thus indicating ultrafast electron transfer phenomena.
