Synthesis and Physicochemical Characterization of Bis(macrocycles) Involving a Porphyrin and a meso ‐Substituted Corrole – X‐ray Crystal Structure of…
2005
A very efficient, simple synthesis of face-to-face porphyrin–corrole free-bases bearing substituents at the meso positions of the corrole ring is reported. Starting from the (porphyrin–aldehyde)zinc species 1Zn, porphyrin–corrole free-bases (3M, 3C) are obtained in two steps, in fairly good yields (40–43 %), compared to 11 steps for their corrole β-pyrrole-substituted counterparts. Moreover, the possibility to directly synthesize the free-base (porphyrin–corrole)cobalt complex (5M or 5C) allows for the further preparation of heterodimetallic derivatives. Crystals of the bis(pyridine) adduct of 5M have been grown; the molecular structure clearly shows that the two pyridine molecules are coor…
Heterobimetallic complexes of cobalt(IV) porphyrin-corrole dyads. Synthesis, physicochemical properties, and X-ray structural characterization.
2005
The synthesis of a novel family of heterobinuclear cofacial biphenylene (B), anthracene (A), 9,9-dimethylxanthene (X), or dibenzofuran (O) bridged porphyrin-corrole complexes, (PCY)MClCoCl, is reported, M being either an iron(III) or manganese(III) ion. Each complex was characterized by electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, UV-vis, IR, and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Unlike previously examined biscobalt porphyrin-corrole dyads, the cobalt ion of the corrole moiety is present in a high-valence +4 oxidation state, as proven by electrochemistry, spectroelectrochemistry, and an X-ray diffraction study of (PCB)FeClCoCl, which shows the presence of a bound Cl- anion on the cobalt corrole…
Synthesis and study of new precursors for bimodal optic/PET or optic/SPECT imaging
2014
This thesis was performed at the Institut de Chimie Moléculaire de d’Université de Bourgogne (France) and in the Département de chimie de l’Université de Sherbrooke (Québec). The aim of this work was to design new BODIPY derivatives in order to obtain optimal properties for in vivo bimodal optical/PET or SPECT imaging. The modifications concern the hydrosolubilisation of these organic dyes, as well as the shifting of the absorption and emission bands toward the therapeutic window, where the light is less attenuated by biological tissues. Solutions allowing the bioconjugation of BODIPY on a bombesin derivative, a peptide which targets receptors surexpressed in tumor cells, were also investig…
Electrochemistry of Bis(pyridine)cobalt (Nitrophenyl)corroles in Nonaqueous Media
2018
International audience; A series of bis(pyridine)cobalt corroles with one or three nitrophenyl groups on the meso positions of the corrole macrocycle were synthesized and characterized as to their electrochemical and spectroscopic properties in dichloromethane, benzonitrile, and pyridine. The potentials for each electrode reaction were measured by cyclic voltammetry and the electron-transfer mechanisms evaluated by analysis of the electrochemical data combined with UV-visible spectra of the neutral, electroreduced, and electroxidized forms of the corroles. The proposed electronic configurations of the initial compounds and the prevailing redox reactions involving the electroactive central c…
Alkyl- and aryl-substituted corroles. 4. Solvent effects on the electrochemical and spectral properties of cobalt corroles.
2003
Solvent effects on the electrochemistry and spectroscopic properties of alkyl- and aryl-substituted corroles in nonaqueous media are reported. The oxidation and reduction of six compounds containing zero to seven phenyl or substituted phenyl groups on the macrocycle were studied in four different nonaqueous solvents (CH(2)Cl(2), PhCN, THF, and pyridine) containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate. Dimers were formed upon oxidation of all corroles in CH(2)Cl(2), but this was not the case in the other three solvents, where either monomers or dimers were formed upon oxidation depending upon the solvent Gutmann donor number and the number or location of aryl substituents on the macrocycl…
Alkyl- and aryl-substituted corroles. 5. Synthesis, physicochemical properties, and X-ray structural characterization of copper biscorroles and porph…
2004
The synthesis and characterization of cofacial copper biscorroles and porphyrin-corroles linked by a biphenylenyl or anthracenyl spacer are described. The investigated compounds are represented as (BCA)Cu(2) and (BCB)Cu(2) in the case of the biscorrole (BC) derivatives and (PCA)Cu(2) and (PCB)Cu(2) in the case of porphyrin (P)-corrole (C) dyads, where A and B represent the anthracenyl and biphenylenyl bridges, respectively. A related monomeric corrole (Me(4)Ph(5)Cor)Cu and monomeric porphyrin (Me(2)Et(6)PhP)Cu that comprise the two halves of the porphyrin-corrole dyads were also studied. Electron spin resonance (ESR), (1)H NMR, and magnetic measurements data demonstrate that the copper corr…
Synthesis and Physicochemical Characterization ofmeso-Functionalized Corroles: Precursors of Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials
2005
Cobalt(III) corroles exhibit an infinite selectivity for the coordination of carbon monoxide towards dioxygen and dinitrogen. This peculiar property thus allows their use as sensing devices for CO detection. Here are described the syntheses and physico-chemical characterization of meso mono-, bis- and tris(triethoxysilyl)-functionalized corroles, precursors of organic–inorganic materials. The corrole ring formation was achieved in every case using the “2+1” method involving the reaction of two equivalents of an encumbered dipyrromethane with one equivalent of an aromatic aldehyde in the presence of a catalytic amount of trifluoroacetic acid. The functionalization of the corrole by triethoxy…
Alkyl and Aryl Substituted Corroles. 2. Synthesis and Characterization of Linked “Face-to-Face” Biscorroles. X-ray Structure of (BCA)Co2(py)3, Where …
2001
The synthesis, spectroscopic properties, and electrochemistry of (BCA)Co(2) and (BCB)Co(2) are described where BCA and BCB represent biscorroles linked by an anthracenyl (A) or a biphenylenyl (B) bridge. The pyridine and CO binding properties of (BCA)Co(2) and (BCB)Co(2) are also presented, and one of the compounds in its pyridine-ligated form, (BCA)Co(2)(py)(3), is structurally characterized. The data on the biscorroles are compared on one hand to the monocorrole having the same substitution pattern and on the other hand to bisporphyrins having two Co(II) ions and the same anthracenyl or biphenylenyl linkers in order to better understand the interaction which occurs between the two corrole…
Alkyl and Aryl Substituted Corroles. 1. Synthesis and Characterization of Free Base and Cobalt Containing Derivatives. X-ray Structure of (Me4Ph5Cor)…
2001
The synthesis, spectroscopic properties, and electrochemistry of six different alkyl- and aryl-substituted Co(III) corroles are presented. The investigated compounds contain methyl, ethyl, phenyl, or substituted phenyl groups at the eight β-positions of the corrole macrocycle and four derivatives also contain a phenyl group at the 10-meso position of the macrocycle. Each cobalt corrole undergoes four reversible oxidations in CH2Cl2 containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate and exists as a dimer in its singly and doubly oxidized forms. The difference in potential between the first two oxidations is associated with the degree of interaction between the two corrole units of the dimer …
Efficient energy transfer in a tri-chromophoric dyad containing BODIPYs and corrole based on a truxene platform
2018
A star-shaped molecule was designed and synthesized based on a known central truxene platform. Two BODIPY derivatives and one corrole macrocycle were introduced and connected to the 2, 7 and 12-positions of the truxene unit by Suzuki coupling. The dyad was fully characterized by UV-vis absorption, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry. The direction of energy transfer upon electronic excitation was explored, and the star-shaped molecule system exhibits a highly efficient photoinduced energy transfer process from the excited BODIPY part to the corrole unit.
