Non-Covalent Multi-Porphyrin Assemblies : Synthesis and Properties
This book presents an overview of the synthesis, structure, and properties of molecules obtained by connecting several porphyrins or metalloporphyrins through a variety of chemical linkages. This handsomely produced book gives the reader a broad introduction to this popular and important field. Much of the work encompassed in this area is inspired by the desire to obtain photochemically responsive molecules capable of mimicking various aspects of photosynthesis… As with many edited volumes of this type, there is a certain amount of duplicate coverage of some topics. Also the focus is largely on the methods used to generate the multiporphyrin arrays, and in some cases less attention is given to the properties, other than the structural properties of these arrays.
N4-Macrocyclic Metal Complexes
The study of nanoparticles is anchored in Colloid Science. Colloid Science as we consider it today was nucleated by Wolfgang Ostwald and initiated by his biological studies. The strong connection between biology and Colloid Science lost attractiveness in the last decades. The revival of this interdisciplinary science is now noted and we hope that a signal will start from the Potsdam conference. "This is an excellent and detailed book of 14 chapters that is timely in its reviews of the electrochemical and electrocatalytic properties of the porphyrinoids and is written by a range of experts in the different fields covered.
