Synthesis, characterization, and electrochemical and electrical properties of a novel ball-type hexanuclear metallophthalocyanine, bridged by calix[4]arenes substituted with four hexylthiometallophthalocyanines through nitro coupling Tanju Ceyhan, Ahmet Altındal, Ali Rıza Özkaya, Bekir Salih, Mehmet K. Erbil and Özer Bekaroğlu* DOI: 10.1142/S1088424607000734 Page: 625-634 Ipso-nitrated p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene was used as starting material for the preparation of bisphthalodinitrile derivative of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene func­tio­nalized at the upper rim, and this derivative was converted to the novel hexanuclear zinc (II) phthalocyanine with alkylthio substituents. Electrochemi­cal, spectroelectrochemical and electrical properties of this compound were also presented here in detail. Supplementary Material
Photophysical, photochemical and bovine serum albumin binding studies on water-soluble gallium(III) phthalocyanine derivatives Abimbola Ogunsipe,Tebello Nyokong and Mahmut Durmuş* DOI: 10.1142/S1088424607000746 Page: 635-644 Spectral, photophysical, photochemical and bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding studies on some gallium(III) phthalocyanines are hereby presented. The quaternized derivatives are water-soluble and non-aggregated, which makes them potential photosensitizers of choice for photodynamic therapy (PDT) applications.
Structure-function relationship in antimony corrole photosensitizers. Time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance and optical study Linn Wagnert, Alexander Berg, Eli Stavitski, Inna Luobeznova, Zeev Gross and Haim Levanon* DOI: 10.1142/S1088424607000758 Page: 645-651 The photophysical properties of Sb(III) pyridine-, Sb(V)O- and Sb(V)F2-tris-(pentafluorophenyl) corroles were studied by time-resolved EPR and optical spectroscopies. The results were discussed in terms of the corrole structure and correlated with their different efficiencies to perform photoassisted aerobic oxygenation of some organic molecules.
Vibrational analysis of Ni(II) complex with 4,12-ditolyl-16,24-diphenyl-3-thiaporphyrin (SDTDPPNi(II)Cl) and its isotopic labeled (61Ni(II), -d6, and -d10) derivatives Edyta Podstawka, Mateusz Fościak, Piotr Chmielewski and Leonard M. Proniewicz* DOI: 10.1142/S108842460700076X Page: 652-675 This work presents complete vibrational analysis of a chloride complex of Ni(II) 4,12-ditolyl-16,24-diphenyl-3-thiaporphyrin (SDTDPPNi(II)Cl) and its isotopic derivatives (61Ni(II), -d6, and -d10). Five-coordinate SDTDPPNi(II)Cl, SDTDPP61Ni(II)Cl, (SDTDPP-d6)Ni(II)Cl, and (SDTDPP-d10)Ni(II)Cl were investigated by FT-IR, RR, and UV-vis methods. Geometry optimization and vibrational frequencies were calculated for STPPNi(II)Cl model molecule and its isotopically labeled analogues using Gaussian’03. Also, charge distributions (GAPT) and geometrical aromaticity indexes (Bird’s I5 and HOMA) were calculated.
Benzo-9-crown-3 substituted phenyl porphyrin Abolghasem Moghimi*, Mehdi Ghandi, Sedigheh Sadat Naeemi, Nasser Safari and Farzad Bahadoran DOI: 10.1142/S1088424607000771 Page: 676-681 Application of mix method on the cyclization reaction of pyrrole, benzaldehyde and 4’-formyl-B9C3 results in the formation of crown ether-appended porphyrins containing one, two, three or four crown ether rings. The resulting porphyrins were separated by column chromatography and characterized by NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy.
Resonance Raman and absorption properties of Zn(II) and Ni(II) polynitroporphyrins and their chemical reduction products Sergei N. Terekhov*, Gennadii N. Sinyakov, Evgeni E. Lobko, Pierrette Battiony, Pierre-Yves Turpin and Vladimir S. Chirvony DOI: 10.1142/S1088424607000783 Page: 682-690 Zn(II) and Ni(II) complexes of electron-deficient porphyrins produced by introduction of 8 or 12 nitro substituents on [meso-tetra-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)- porphyrin] and their reduced species have been characterized by steady-state absorption and resonance Raman spectroscopies. It is concluded that the one-electron reduction products of the studied polynitrosubstituted metalloporphyrins are π–anion radicals in character.
Isolation and characterization of new heme analogues with weakly coordinating anions. Formation of monoimidazole complex, OEPFe(Im)(SbF6) Mozhgan Khorasani-Motlagh*, Meissam Noroozifar and Asieh Moodi DOI: 10.1142/S1088424607000795 Page: 691-696 Three new five-coordinate and stable iron (III) heme analogues, OEPFeX, where OEP is the dianion of octaethylporphyrin and X = BF4, AsF6 and SbF6, have been isolated. Also, monoimidazole ferric-porphyrin complex, OEPFe(Im)(SbF6) has been prepared in solution by starting with OEPFe(SbF6). Electrochemical of OEPFeX (X = BF4, AsF6, SbF6) have been studied by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry.
