HILL, Jonathan, XIE, Yongshu, AKADA, Misaho, WAKAYAMA, Yutaka, ARIGA, Katsuhiko
International Conference on Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines 3 Jul 2016
Self-assembly of molecules implies intermolecular processes that can involve hydrogen bonding, van der Waals interactions (e.g. pi-pi stacking), amphiphilicity, coordination chemistry and combinations of these. Here, we will discuss assembly proce...
Sacrificial Rotaxane - When Copper Demetallation Fails toward Free Base Corrole Porphyrin Conjugates
NGO, Thien Huynh, ARIGA, Katsuhiko, HILL, Jonathan
9th International Conference on Porphyrins and Phthalocyanins 3 Jul 2016
Corrole functionalization has provided a wide range of functional groups to corrole core, allowing the desired properties to be modified for different research fields. Copper center has been used as protecting group during the tedious synthetic pr...

Interactions of Antioxidant-Substituted Macrocycles
HILL, Jonathan, Daniel Payne, MATSUSHITA, Yoshitaka, JIN, Shangbin, LABUTA, Jan, ARIGA, Katsuhiko
229th Electrochemical Society Meeting 29 May 2016
Porphyrins substituted with antioxidant 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol substituents have been shown to exhibit different conformations based on the oxidation state of those substituents leading to the oxoporphyrinogens. We have attempted to apply this fe...

Pyrazinacenes, porphyrins and nanoparticles: liquid crystals and self-assemblies
HILL, Jonathan, RICHARDS, Gary James, XIE, Yongshu, AKADA, Misaho, ACHARYA, Somobrata, ARIGA, Katsuhiko
EMN Meeting on Liquid Crystals 16 Feb 2016
We introduce progress in the synthesis of liquid crystals containing N-analogues of pentacene. Also, some properties of liquid crystals doped with chalcogenide nanoparticles will be presented. For the porphyrins, self-assembly of implies intermole...
