The effect of π-conjugation in the macrocyclic ring on the photophysical properties of a series of thiaaceneporphyrinoids

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Aug 7;50(61):8367-9. doi: 10.1039/c4cc03855j.

Abstract

In a series of thiaaceneporphyrinoids, their conformers exhibit macrocyclic π-conjugation pathways controlled by a dihedral angle between the porphyrin framework and acene planes. Conformational equilibria significantly affect the photophysical properties of these macrocycles.
