Dye degrading property to exhibit self-cleaning effect in Poly Ethylene Terephthalate (PET) through photocatalytic effect by Metallo porphyrin and TiO₂ has been studied in detail. PET has been modified by step wise deposition of anatase TiO₂ and Metallo porphyrin (CuTCNPP, NiTCNPP, ZnTCNPP), self-cleaning property of the modified PET has been studied by photo degradation of rhodamine B (RB) by irradiation under visible light and the degrading ability and the efficiency has been monitored using UV-Vis spectral technique by measuring the change in concentration of RB in the PET at different time intervals. Stability of Metallo porphyrin in PET also measured by UV-Vis spectral method. Indicating the porphyrin attached in PET are highly stable after washing the samples with detergent, water even after irradiating under visible light for more than 5 h. The degradation effectiveness found to be in the order of PET/TiO₂/ZnTCNPP > PET/TiO₂/CuTCNPP > PET/TiO₂/NiTCNPP > TiO₂ > PET. The modification made in the PET samples were characterized and confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) analysis and the prepared Metallo porphyrin has been confirmed through mass analysis.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are hybrid inorganic-organic 3D coordination polymers with metal sites and organic linkers, which are a "hot" topic in the research of sorption, separations, catalysis, sensing, and environmental remediation. In this study, we explore the molecular mechanism and kinetics of interaction of the new copper porphyrin aluminum metal-organic framework (actAl-MOF-TCPPCu) compound with a vapor of the volatile organic sulfur compound (VOSC) diethyl sulfide (DES). First, compound was synthesized by post-synthetic modification (PSM) of Al-MOF-TCPPH compound by inserting Cu ions into the porphyrin ring and characterized by complementary qualitative and quantitative chemical, structural, and spectroscopic analysis.

The endogenous reduction of nitrite to nitrosyl is drawing increasing attention as a protective mechanism against hypoxic injury in mammalian physiology and as an alternative source of NO, which is involved in a wide variety of biological activities. Thus, chemical mechanisms for this transformation, which are mediated by metallo proteins, are of considerable interest. The study described here examines the reactions of the biomimetic models Co(TTP)(NO) (TTP = meso-tetratolylporphyrinato dianion) and Mn(TPP)(ONO) (TPP = meso-tetraphenyl-porphyrinato dianion) in sublimated solid films with hydrogen sulfide (HS) and with ethanethiol (EtSH) at various temperatures from 77 K to room temperature using in situ infrared and optical spectroscopy.

Host-guest dynamic systems in coordination-driven metallo-organic cages have gained significant attentions since their promising applications in chiral separation, drug delivery, and catalytical fields. To maximize guest-binding affinity, hosts adopting multiple conformations are widely investigated on their structural flexibility for guest accommodation. In this study, a novel metallo-organic cage S with breathing inner cavity and freely twisted side chains was proposed.

The positive electrodes of non-aqueous aluminum ion batteries (AIBs) frequently encounter significant issues, for instance, low capacity in graphite (mechanism: anion de/intercalation and large electrode deformation induced) and poor stability in inorganic positive electrodes (mechanism: multi-electron redox reaction and dissolution of active materials induced). Here, metallo-porphyrin compounds (employed Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn as the ion centers) are introduced to effectively enhance both the cycling stability and reversible capacity due to the formation of stable conjugated metal-organic coordination and presence of axially coordinated active sites, respectively. With the regulation of electronic energy levels, the d-orbitals in the redox reactions and electron transfer pathways can be rearranged.

Unimolecular reduction and bimolecular reductive coupling of carbon monoxide (CO) represent important ways to synthesize organic feedstocks. Reductive activation of CO through open-shell pathways, though rare, can help overcome the barriers of many traditional organometallic elementary reactions that are hard to achieve. Herein we successfully achieve the unimolecular reduction of CO to (TPP)RhCHOSiRRR (TPP = 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin), and the release of products CHOSiRRR, TEMPO-CHOSiRRR and BrCHOSiRRR in near-quantitative yield under visible light (420-780 nm), which involves radical formation from Rh-C bond homolysis.
