High electrocatalytic activity with tunable luminescence is crucial for the development of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminophores. In this study, a porphyrin-based heterobimetallic 2D metal organic framework (MOF), [(ZnTCPP)Co(MeIm)] (1), is successfully self-assembled from the zinc(II) tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine (ZnTCPP) linker and cobalt(II) ions in the presence of 2-methylimidazole (MeIm) by a facile one-pot reaction in methanol at room temperature. On the basis of the experimental results and the theoretical calculations, the MOF 1 contains paddle-wheel [Co(-CO)] secondary building units (SBUs) axially coordinated by a MeIm ligand, which is very beneficial to the electron transfer between the Co(II) ions and oxygen. Combining the photosensitizers ZnTCPP and the electroactive [Co(-CO)] SBUs, the 2D MOF 1 possesses an excellent ECL performance, and can be used as a novel ECL probe for rapid nonamplified detection of the RdRp gene of SARS-CoV-2 with an extremely low limit of detection (≈30 aM).

Accurately predicting the power conversion efficiency (PCE) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) represents a crucial challenge, one that is pivotal for the high throughput rational design and screening of promising dye sensitizers. This study presents precise, predictive, and interpretable machine learning (ML) models specifically designed for Zn-porphyrin-sensitized solar cells. The model leverages theoretically computable, effective, and reusable molecular descriptors (MDs) to address this challenge.

Pathogenic microorganisms may continue causing infection through the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes. As a result, the efficacy of pharmaceuticals in microbial inactivation is deteriorating. The present study was conducted to investigate the antimicrobial activity of neutral and quaternized free base and Zn 5,10,15,20-tetra(pyridin-3-yl) porphyrins on Escherichia coli (E.

Porphyrin-based non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) have shown pronounced potential for assembling low-bandgap materials with near-infrared (NIR) characteristics. Herein, panchromatic-type porphyrin-based molecules (POR1-POR5) are proposed by modulating end-capped acceptors of a highly efficient porphyrin-based NFA PORTFIC(POR) for organic solar cells (OSCs). Quantum chemical structure-property relationship has been studied to discover photovoltaic and optoelectronic characteristics of POR1-POR5.

The robust and strong electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission of organic emitters in an aqueous solution is crucial for expanding their applications in early diagnosis. Herein, a Zn porphyrin-based metal-organic framework ((Zn)porphMOF) was facilely obtained by chelating Zn(ii)meso-tetra (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphine (Zn-TSPP) with Zn ions, showing substantially enhanced ECL radiation with KSO as the coreactant via the "reduction-oxidation" route in aqueous media. In contrast with Zn-TSPP, (Zn)porphMOF displayed 22-fold increase in the ECL intensity because of the agglomeration effect.
