چکیده

Reversible switching between intra- to intermolecular electron transfer paths has been accomplished by adding and extracting potassium ions to the supramolecular porphyrin-fullerene conjugates formed by complexing porphyrin functionalized with a benzo-18-crown-6 entity and fullerene functionalized with an alkylammonium cation entity.

A supramolecular cup-and-ball C60-porphyrin conjugate system.

In addition to the ammonium-crown ether recognition, pi-stacking interactions between the C60 sphere and the porphyrin moiety have been evidenced in a supramolecular complex obtained from a porphyrin-crown ether conjugate and a fullerene derivative bearing an ammonium unit.

Axle charge effects on photoinduced electron transfer processes in rotaxanes containing porphyrin and [60]fullerene.

Two rotaxanes containing zinc porphyrin (ZnP) with crown ether and [60]fullerene (C(60)) with cationic and neutral axles are synthesized. Optimized structures calculated by molecular orbital methods indicate that the rotaxane with an ammonium cation in the center of the axle has a shorter distance between the C(60) and ZnP moieties than that of the rotaxane with a neutral axle because of acylat...

Conjugated Porphyrin Dimers: Cooperative Effects and Electronic Communication in Supramolecular Ensembles with C60

Two new conjugated porphyrin-based systems (dimers 3 and 4) endowed with suitable crown ethers have been synthesized as receptors for a fullerene-ammonium salt derivative (1). Association constants in solution have been determined by UV-vis titration experiments in CH2Cl2 at room temperature. The designed hosts are able to associate up to two fullerene-based guest molecules and present associat...

A 'two-point' bound zinc porphyrin-zinc phthalocyanine-fullerene supramolecular triad for sequential energy and electron transfer.

A novel supramolecular triad composed of a zinc porphyrin-zinc phthalocyanine dyad and fullerenes has been assembled using a 'two-point' axial binding approach, and occurrence of efficient photoinduced energy transfer followed by electron transfer is demonstrated.

Through-bond photoinduced electron transfer in a porphyrin-fullerene conjugate held by a Hamilton type hydrogen bonding motif.

Control over the occurrence of through-bond electron transfer in self-assembled donor-acceptor conjugates is often difficult, since through-space electron transfer also competes due to the flexible nature of the spacer used to link the entities. In the present study, we have constructed a self-assembled donor-acceptor conjugate held solely by complementary hydrogen bonding and established throu...
