Roped in : The number of isomers present in the bisadduct analogue PCBM (bis‐PCBM; PCBM=phenyl‐C 61 ‐butyric acid methyl ester), a recently introduced acceptor for bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic devices, has been reduced to seven by linking two tosylhydrazone addends with an ethylene glycol tether and reacting them with C 60 .
