Control of the conformational dynamics of meso–meso vinylene-bridged Zn(ii) porphyrin dimers through diamine coordination†
Abstract
Two meso–meso vinylene-bridged Zn(II) porphyrin dimers 1 and 2 were analyzed in terms of the control of their conformational dynamics induced by the rotation around the double bond bridge. The dihedral angles between the two porphyrin rings were modulated through coordination with α,ω-diaminoalkanes of varying chain lengths.
