Langmuir and Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) films of tetrapyridyl metalloporphyrins

Electrochemical behavior of hydroquinone and catechol at glassy carbon electrode modified by electropolymerization of tetraruthenated oxovanadium porphyrin

“…The electropolymerization mechanism of tetraruthenated porphyrin was previously published by our group [38], and it occurs by formation of binuclear mixed-valence complexes (Ru II /Ru III ) between the peripheral groups "RuCl 3 (dppb)" by chloride bridges, which links the porphyrin rings, to generate a polymeric film {MTPyP[Ru(dppb) 4 (Cl 3 ) 2 } 2n 8n+ . The electrocatalytic behavior is dependent of the metal ion coordinated in the porphyrin ring [40][41][42], therefore, the attempt to improve the electrocatalytic properties of the porphyrins, through new transition-metal ions, is a search continues.…”

Investigation of the photophysical and eletrochemical properties of a free base tetrapyridyl porphyrin with meso carbon linked ruthenium(II) groups

“…This class of compounds is present in a great variety of natural processes such as photosynthesis (Mg porphyrins), oxygen transport and storage (iron porphyrins), and many others [2]. Besides the interest in understanding these natural processes, porphyrins are also widely studied because of their potential applications in fields such as photonics [3], medicine (e.g., cancer therapy) [4,5], gas sensors [6], molecular devices [7,8], energy conversion, solar cells [9] and light harvesting [10]. In free-base types, two central nitrogen atoms of the porphyrin ring are protonated assuring structural stability [1].…”

Bilayer Porphyrin-Graphene Templates for Self-Assembly of Metal-Organic Frameworks on the Surface

“…Их ком-плексы с цинком (ZnTPyP и ZnTСPP) получали по описанной методике. [47,48] Хлороформ (analytical grade) (Merck) перегоняли над CaH 2 . Метанол (99.8 %, Merck), оксид графена (2 мг/мл, дисперсия в воде, Aldrich) и ацетат цинка (98 %, Aldrich) использовали без предварительной очистки.…”
