Description

Monofunctionalisation of meso-tetrakis-porphyrins through introduction of a carboxylic group in the meso position of the phenyl group confers the necessary characteristics to anchor them through stable amide bonds to functionalised supports or to molecules. In this Letter we describe the synthesis, characterisation and photophysical evaluation of such a functionalised flexible dimeric porphyrin, bis-(meso-tetrakis-5,10,15-triphenyl-20-(p-carboxyphenyl)-porphyrinyl)-1,6-hexanediamide. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6THS-4N7S52J-7/1/b7df4e0438fdd01870bb269b3c71d0ec
