Zn-containing porphyrin as a biomimetic light-harvesting molecule for biocatalyzed artificial photosynthesis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Among the porphyrin molecules with different metal insertion sites and functional ligands, Zn-porphyrin most efficiently regenerates NADH through photo-induced electron transfer in the presence of [Cp*Rh(bpy)H(2)O](2+), a rhodium-based electron mediator. Photochemical regeneration of NADH by Zn-porphyrin is successfully coupled with redox enzymatic synthesis under dark state conditions.

Binary ionic porphyrin nanosheets: electronic and light-harvesting properties regulated by crystal structure.
Crystalline solids self-assembled from anionic and cationic porphyrins provide a new class of multifunctional optoelectronic micro- and nanomaterials. A 1 : 1 combination of zinc(II) tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (ZnTPPS) and tin(IV) tetra(N-methyl-4-pyridiniumyl)porphyrin (SnTNMePyP) gives porphyrin nanosheets with high aspect ratios and varying thickness. The room temperature preparation ...
متن کاملLight-harvesting and ultrafast energy migration in porphyrin-based metal-organic frameworks.
Given that energy (exciton) migration in natural photosynthesis primarily occurs in highly ordered porphyrin-like pigments (chlorophylls), equally highly ordered porphyrin-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) might be expected to exhibit similar behavior, thereby facilitating antenna-like light-harvesting and positioning such materials for use in solar energy conversion schemes. Herein, we rep...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional artificial light-harvesting antennae with predesigned high-order structure and robust photosensitising activity
Highly ordered discrete assemblies of chlorophylls that are found in natural light-harvesting antennae are key to photosynthesis, which converts light energy to chemical energy and is the principal producer of organic matter on Earth. Porphyrins and phthalocyanines, which are analogues of chlorophylls, exhibit a strong absorbance of visible and near-infrared light, respectively. A highly ordere...
متن کاملTowards multielectron photocatalysis: a porphyrin array for lateral hole transfer and capture on a metal oxide surface.
Current molecular water-oxidation photoelectrocatalytic cells have substantial kinetic limitations under normal solar photon flux where electron-hole recombination processes may outcompete charge buildup on the catalytic centers. One method of overcoming these limitations is to design a system where multiple light-harvesting dyes work cooperatively with a single catalyst. We report a porphyrin ...
متن کاملDye-sensitized solar cells using ethynyl-linked porphyrin trimers.
Toward the extension of the light-harvesting region of sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), two ethynyl-linked porphyrin trimers were synthesized and investigated. The zinc–freebase–zinc trimer (Zn–FbA–Zn) showed an absorption maximum at a longer wavelength than the all-zinc trimer (Zn–ZnA–Zn), although the energy level of Zn–FbA–Zn was lower than that of Zn–ZnA–Zn. The DSSCs usin...
