Electronic Communication in Heterometallated Porphyrin Oligomers

This book cuts across the divisions of organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry. It describes new methods for creating π-conjugated porphyrin oligomers with precisely defined sequences of zinc and copper metal cations, and how EPR spectroscopy was used to investigate the dipolar and exchange coupling between the paramagnetic copper(II) centres.

Porphyrins are a group of heterocyclic macrocycle organic compounds that play an important role in our everyday life and can for example be found i...
