چکیده

Porphyrins appended with four rigid hydrogen bonding motifs on the meso positions were synthesized and self-assembled into a cofacial cage with four complementary bis(decyl)melamine units in dry solvents. The hydrocarbon chains on the melamine mediate the formation of nanofilms on surfaces as the solvent slowly evaporates.

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...

Self-organization of self-assembled photonic materials into functional devices: photo-switched conductors.

Linear porphyrin arrays self-assembled by either hydrogen bonding or metal ion coordination self-organize into lipid bilayer membranes. The length of the transmembrane assemblies is determined both by the thermodynamics of the intermolecular interactions in the supermolecule and by the dimension and physical chemical properties of the bilayer. Thus, the size of the porphyrin assembly can self-a...

Self-assembly of double-decker cages induced by coordination of perylene bisimide with a trimeric Zn porphyrin: study of the electron transfer dynamics between the two photoactive components.

We describe the thermodynamic characterization of the assembly process of a covalently connected trimeric Zn porphyrin induced by coordination to a bispyridyl functionalized perylene bisimide . The perylene bisimide ligands act as pillars via two axial coordination bonds with the porphyrinic Zn(ii) ions fixing the planes of the porphyrin units in a nearly co-facial orientation and inducing the ...

DFT Study of Hydrogen Bonding on Calix[8]arene as Nanostructure Compound

An azobenzene bridge was introduced into the lower (or smaller) rim of p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene to form 1,5-singly bridged calix[8]arene derivatives, respectively. Bridged calix[8]arene of conformationally rigid wereisolated. The stability of the two structures of bridged calix[8]arenes have been compared.The study of organicstructure to form nanoporous structures is a well known in chemistry ...

Synthesis and photophysics of a porphyrin-fullerene dyad assembled through Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding.

A novel porphyrin-fullerene dyad assembled through Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds is described; this system undergoes photoinduced electron transfer upon irradiation with visible light to produce a charge separated state that is substantially longer lived than that of previous dyads of this type.
