Crystal engineering of nanoporous architectures and chiral porphyrin assemblies

摘要: The observations described in this paper address the scientific challenge of predictably self-organizing porphyrin molecules into materials with complex topologies, an emphasis on rational construction robust nanoporous solids and systems exhibiting supramolecular chirality. In order to achieve these goals scaffold is deliberately functionalized different molecular recognition groups prone engaging synthons. results demonstrate that, while a priori rigorous prediction crystal structures still not possible, designed patterning porphyrin-based network framework architectures via cooperative non-covalent linkers achievable task. This lays solid ground for successful design, synthesis characterization novel functional that will exhibit unique properties areas sieving, sensing, gas storage, photonics nonlinear optics, which are unobtainable by discrete entities.
