Abstract

Abstract: The synthesis and characterization of a variety of selectively metalated quinone- substituted zinc-containing octaalkyl porphyrin dimers, designed to mimic certain key electronic and structural aspects of the photosynthetic reaction centers of Rhodopseudomonas uiridis and Rhodobacter sphaeroides, and appropriate control monomers and dimers are described. These new compounds have been characterized by ...
