Photophysical comparison of Zn(ii) phthalocyanaine tetrasulfonate and Zn(ii) tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin encapsulated within the Zn-polyhedral metal organic framework, HKUST-1(Zn)

Abstract

Porphyrins and phthalocyanines are ideal candidates for the development of photoactive porous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) due to their broad absorption spectra in the visible and near UV regions, high...
