    (Metallo)porphyrins for potential materials science applications
    (Frankfurt, M. : Beilstein-Institut zur Förderung der Chemischen Wissenschaften, 2017-8-29) Smykalla, Lars; Mende, Carola; Fronk, Michael; Siles, Pablo F.; Hietschold, Michael; Salvan, Georgeta; Zahn, Dietrich R.T.; Schmidt, Oliver G.; Rüffer, Tobias; Lang, Heinrich
    The bottom-up approach to replace existing devices by molecular-based systems is a subject that attracts permanently increasing interest. Molecular-based devices offer not only to miniaturize the device further, but also to benefit from advanced functionalities of deposited molecules. Furthermore, the molecules itself can be tailored to allow via their self-assembly the potential fabrication of devices with an application potential, which is still unforeseeable at this time. Herein, we review efforts to use discrete (metallo)porphyrins for the formation of (sub)monolayers by surface-confined polymerization, of monolayers formed by supramolecular recognition and of thin films formed by sublimation techniques. Selected physical properties of these systems are reported as well. The application potential of those ensembles of (metallo)porphyrins in materials science is discussed.

    Green-Emissive Zn2+ Complex Supported by a Macrocyclic Schiff-Base/Calix[4]arene-Ligand: Crystallographic and Spectroscopic Characterization
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2021) Ullmann, Steve; Börner, Martin; Kahnt, Axel; Abel, Bernd; Kersting, Berthold
    The macrocyclic calix[4]arene ligand H2L comprises two non-fluorescent 2,6-bis-(iminomethyl)phenolate chromophores, which show a chelation-enhanced fluorescence enhancement upon Zn2+ ion complexation. Macrocyclic [ZnL] complexes aggregate in the absence of external coligands via intermolecular Zn−N bonds to give dimeric [ZnL]2 structures comprising two five-coordinated Zn2+ ions. The absorption and emission wavelengths are bathochromically shifted upon going from the liquid (λmax,abs (CH2Cl2)=404 nm, λmax,em (CH2Cl2)=484 nm) to the solid state (λmax,abs=424 nm (4 wt%, BaSO4 pellet), λmax,em=524 nm (neat solid)). Insights into the electronic nature of the UV-vis transitions were obtained with time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations for a truncated model complex.
