This review covers the surface chemistry of porphyrins, phthalocyanines, their metal
complexes, and related compounds, with particular focus on chemical reactions at …

Porphyrins and other tetrapyrrole macrocycles possess an impressive variety of functional
properties that have been exploited in natural and artificial systems. Different metal centres …

We investigated the coordination self-assembly and metalation reaction of Cu with 5, 10, 15,
20-tetra (4-pyridyl) porphyrin (2HTPyP) on a Au (111) surface by means of scanning …

Conspectus The investigation of porphyrin derivatives at the solid–vacuum interface has
become a vivid research field with the prospect to tailor functional molecular architectures …

The metallation of tetrapyrroles at well-defined surfaces under ultra-high vacuum conditions
represents an unconventional synthesis approach to achieve tetrapyrrole-based metal …

A coupling-limited approach for the Ullmann reaction-like on-surface synthesis of a two-
dimensional covalent organic network starting from a halogenated metallo-porphyrin is …

Temperature-dependent chemical and structural changes of a submonolayer of 2H-
tetraphenylporphyrin (2HTPP) on Cu (111) were studied with photoelectron spectroscopy …

Using temperature‐programmed desorption, supported by X‐ray photoelectron
spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy, a comprehensive overview of the main …

We report on the adsorption and self-metalation of a prototypic tetrapyrrole compound, the
free-base porphine (2H-P), on the Cu (111) surface. Our multitechnique study combines …

Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) enables us to directly observe the dynamic
behaviour of organic molecules on surfaces. While imaging atoms and molecules using …
