Electron-donating ferrocenyl moieties have been incorporated into supramolecular carboxyporphyrin architectures Zn(II)-5-ferrocenyl-10,20-bistolyl-15-(4-methylbenzoate)porphyrin (trans-Fc-ZnP-CO2Me), Zn(II)-5-ferrocenyl-10,15,20-tris(4-methylbenzoate)porphyrin [trans-Fc-ZnP-(CO2Me)(3)], and Zn(II)-5,15-bisferrocenyl-10,20-bis(4-benzoate)porphyrin Itrans-Fc(2)-ZnP-(CO2Me)(2)] for self-assembly on metal oxide nanoparticles. Efficient and economic synthesis has required a convergent strategy toward reduced symmetry trans-A(2)B(2) and trans-AB(2)C substitution patterns about the porphyrin macrocycle minimizing the production of porphyrin side products and increasing yields of the target ferrocenylporphyrins. Preliminary spectroscopic data in solution and in the solid state bound to mesoporous TiO2 films are discussed. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Summary: A study on a series of BODIPY dyes with different conjugation and electron-donating groups showed that certain dyes with specific substituents exhibit significant absorption cross sections in the biological transparency window. The BODIPY derivative with the vinyltriphenylamine group demonstrated the highest photoacoustic emission and contrast compared to commercially available contrast agents.

Steric and Lewis Basicity Influence of the Second Coordination Sphere on Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction by Manganese Bipyridyl Complexes

Vanna Blasczak, Meaghan McKinnon, Lisa Suntrup, Nur Alisa Aminudin, Blake Reed, Stanislav Groysman, Mehmed Z. Ertem, David C. Grills, Jonathan Rochford

Summary: This study aims to provide insights into the influence of steric and Lewis basic ligands on the CO2 reduction mechanisms with [MnI(R2bpy)-(CO)3(CH3CN)]+ precatalysts. The study found that moderate steric bulk allows unique insight into catalyst activation and CO2 binding. The results from cyclic voltammetry and computed free energies show that steric hindrance is related to CO2 binding, but a critical balance must be maintained. Different ligands and reaction mechanisms can affect the catalytic performance and overpotential of the catalysts. Additionally, the ligands have different effects on the rate-determining C-OH bond cleavage transition state.

Electronic Characterization of Vis-NIR Absorbing Noninnocent Ruthenium Oxyquinolate-merocyanine Complexes and their Photoacoustic Emission in Aqueous Micellar Solution†

Peter Catsoulis, Shengwei Wang, Chandra Yelleswarapu, Jonathan Rochford

Summary: The electronic and photophysical properties of a series of ruthenium(II) polypyridyl dyes were studied with the incorporation of a pi-accepting 5-(vinyl-cyanine)-8-oxyquinolate ligand for improved vis-NIR absorption. Through computational and experimental investigations, the influence of these ligands on the electronic and photophysical properties of the complexes was probed. Select complexes showed strong optical absorption and photoacoustic emission at 680 nm, comparable to commercial dyes like methylene blue and cryptocyanine, suggesting their potential as vis-NIR photoacoustic contrast agents.

Summary: A series of ruthenium photosensitizers incorporating a beta-diketonate non-innocent ligand were synthesized and implemented in dye-sensitized solar cells to achieve respectable power conversion efficiencies. However, the extension of the pi-orbital network proved detrimental to DSC performance.

Pyrrolidine-based C1-symmetric chiral transition metal complexes as catalysts in the asymmetric organic transformations

Geeta Devi Yadav, Pooja Chaudhary, Balaram Pani, Surendra Singh

Summary: Chiral transition metal complexes with privileged ligands are efficient catalysts for various asymmetric organic transformations. Transition metal complexes of C1-symmetric pyrrolidine-based ligands have been widely used in asymmetric organic reactions. However, a comprehensive review article on the transition metal complexes of chiral C1-symmetric pyrrolidine-based ligands derived from (L)-proline has not been published.
