Porphyrin molecules are a widely exploited biochemical moiety, with uses in medicinal
chemistry, sensing and materials science. The shape of porphyrins, as an aromatic unit, is …

Porphyrins feature prominently in nature, be it as enzymatic cofactors, electron and exciton
shuffles, as photoactive dyes, or as signaling substances. Their involvement in the …

Porphyrins are variously substituted tetrapyrrolic macrocycles, with wide-ranging biological
and chemical applications derived from metal chelation in the core and the 18π aromatic …

Iron is a transition metal that due to its inherent ability to exchange electrons with a variety of
molecules is essential to support life. In mammals, iron exists mostly in the form of heme …

Catalysis is a topic of continuous interest since it was discovered in chemistry centuries ago.
Aiming at the advance of reactions for efficient processes, a number of approaches have …

Abstract Nonconjugated hydrocarbons, like bicyclo [1.1. 1] pentane, bicyclo [2.2. 2] octane,
triptycene, and cubane are a unique class of rigid linkers. Due to their similarity in size and …

This review underscores the conformational flexibility of porphyrinoids, a unique class of
functional molecules, starting from the smallest triphyrins (1.1. 1) via [18] porphyrins (1.1 …

The core N− H units of planar porphyrins are often inaccessible to forming hydrogen‐
bonding complexes with acceptor molecules. This is due to the fact that the amine moieties …

For the first time, free base and N-methylated porphyrins have been utilized as bifunctional
organocatalysts in Michael additions and it was found that distortion of the macrocycle is a …

Advances in porphyrin chemistry have provided novel materials and exciting technologies
for bioanalysis such as colorimetric sensor array (CSA), photo‐electrochemical (PEC) …
