Abstract Cu‐dinitro‐diamine phthalocyanine was synthesized, the corresponding diazonium salt was reacted with vinylcarbazole (VK), and a novel polyvinylcarbazole (PVK) ‐bonded CuPc(NO 2 ) 2 ( I ) was synthesized. The chemical structure of polymer ( I ) is identified by elemental analysis and IR and UV / VIS spectroscopy. Polymer ( I ) contains about 21 mol % CuPc(NO 2 ) 2 rings that are covalently bonded to PVK. Polymer ( I ) shows good pho‐toconductivity, which is much better than that of the corresponding phthalocyanine monomers. The influence of the interface layer and the charge‐transportation material on the photoconductivity of polymer ( I ) is also discussed. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
