Chemical physics behind formation of effective and selective non-covalent interaction between fullerenes (C60 and C70) and a designed chiral monoporphyrin in solution

Bioactivity Study of the C60-L-Threonine Derivative for Potential Application in Agriculture

“…The foliar treatment by Zantar fungicide was performed during the stalking period (BBCH 39 The registration of harmful objects on the barley leaves was carried out according to the method presented in Ref. [15]. During the vegetation period, the following parameters of the plants were determined:…”

“…Since its discovery, fullerenes have been used in different fields of technology [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Various fullerene derivatives, their noncovalent interactions, and various physicochemical properties are being actively studied now [8,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] However, the low solubility of fullerenes in water and water solutions limits their wide application and commercial use. The synthesis of fullerene derivatives has improved miscibility of fullerenes in water, which showed to have promising results in fields from medicine to engineering [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28].…”

Self‐Assembly and Fluorescence Properties of [60]Fullerene‐Pentacene Monoadducts

“…Fluorescent materials that respond to external stimuli are of great interest, both from a fundamental materials science perspective and with respect to practical applications in sensors, security papers, optoelectronic switches, and information‐storage devices . Especially methods to control the self‐assembly structures of such materials in the solid state or in solution have attracted much attention, due to the potential utility in switchable dual‐emission materials . However, examples for molecules that are capable of switching the wavelength of not only the emission but also the excitation by changing their self‐assembled structures remain scarce .…”

Quantum chemical investigations on a supramolecular porphyrin-fulleropyrrolidine dyads for photovoltaic devices

“…For the construction of potential molecular architectureas a result of EDA interactions, both porphyrins [12,13] and fullerenes [14][15][16] have been extensively utilized as e cient building blocks for their typical physicochemical [17] and photophysical properties [18]. The porphyrin-fullerene conjugates are of remarkable utility due to their electronic complementary [19][20][21] and spontaneous interaction between porphyrin and fullerene [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. Due to the presence of conjugated π-system, porphyrin macrocycle can absorb light in the spectral range of wide variety and as a result of this porphyrins may be suitably employed in the preparation of light-harvesting antennas [35].…”
