The synthesis of three new classes of mixed β-pyrrole substituted tetraphenylporphyrins, MTPP(R), MTPP(Br)2(R) (where R = –CHC(CN)2, –CHC(CN)(COOC2H5), –CH(CN)(COOH) and M = 2H, Ni(II), Cu(II)) and MTPP(NO2)(Ph-p-R′)2 (R′ = –CHO and –CHC(CN)2 and M = 2H, Ni(II), Cu(II)) have been reported. The crystal structures of CuTPP(Br)2-ECA (7a), NiTPP(NO2)(Ph-p-CHO)2 (9) and NiTPP(NO2)(Ph-p-CH(CN)2)2 (10) are highly nonplanar among β-trisubstituted porphyrins reported to date as evidenced from the mean displacement of β-pyrrole carbon (ΔCβ) in the range ±(0.39–0.674) Å. The olefin mediated ethyl cyanoacetate is in plane with the porphyrin core in CuTPP(Br)2-ECA (the dihedral angle relative to the pyrrole NC4-mean plane is 39.81°) while dicyanovinyl stays aside for NiTPP(NO2)(Ph-p-CH(CN)2)2 (dihedral angles relative to the pyrrole NC4-mean plane are 75.03° and 67.47°). NiTPP-MN (2), NiTPP-ECA (3), NiTPP(Br)2-MN (6) and NiTPP(Br)2-ECA (7) act as chemodosimeters for toxic CN− ions whereas NiTPP-CAA (4) and NiTPP(Br)2-CAA (8) act as chemosensors to detect toxic ions such as CN−, F− and OAc− depending on the acceptor strength and an obstacle in the conjugation pathway. The dicyanovinyl group in the phenyl olefinic-mediated porphyrin NiTPP(NO2)(Ph-p-CH(CN)2)2 (10) also acts as chemodosimeter for CN− ions but no vivid changes are observed via different spectroscopic methods.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
