Synthesis and properties of a new (octaethylporphyrinato)-manganese(III)–pyridinyl-substituted pyrrolidinofullerene dyad

Аннотация

The formation of a porphyrin–fullerene dyad from 2′-(pyridin-4-yl)-5′-(pyridin-2-yl)-1′-(pyridin-3-ylmethyl)-2′,5′-dihydro-1′H-pyrrolo[3′,4′: 1,9](C₆₀-I_h)[5,6]fullerene and (2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrinato) manganese(III) with axial chloride ligand has been studied on a quantitative level with the goal of obtaining supramolecules possessing biological activity. Preliminarily, the reaction of manganese(III) porphyrin with pyridine has been studied. The donor–acceptor dyads are formed either instantaneously and reversibly (pyridine) or slowly and irreversibly (substituted fullerene). In both cases, the reaction is a one-step process for which thermodynamic and kinetic parameters have been determined. The results can be used to optimize conditions for the synthesis of porphyrin–fullerene dyads. The obtained dyads have been characterized by spectral data and stability constants.
