1. Three two-dimensional conjugated porphyrin-based COF materials (X–Por–COF, X = NN, CC, C/C) with tunable structural distortion were synthesized through precise molecular engineering of linker units ...

Organic chemistry, the chemistry of carbon compounds, is the basis of all life on Earth. However, metals also play a key role in many biochemical processes. When it comes to "marrying" large, heavy ...

Researchers from Japan develop “hemoCD-Twins”, the first effective therapeutic compound to overcome simultaneous carbon monoxide and hydrogen cyanide poisoning Buildings across the globe are prone to ...

Researchers have incorporated molecules of porphyrin CO2 catalysts into the sponge-like crystals of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) to create a molecular system that not only absorbs carbon dioxide ...

A pair of nanorings, one sitting inside the other, fit together like perfectly nested Russian dolls. The structure is not only strikingly beautiful but could offer a useful model for studying energy ...

Anna Christianson, a chemistry professor at Bellarmine University, was wowed by an exciting color change while making a sulfonated porphyrin (tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin or TSPP) to use as a ...
