At present, porphyrin is developing rapidly in the fields of medicine, energy, catalysts, More and more reports on its application are being published. This paper mainly takes the ingenious utilization of porphyrin derivatives in perovskite solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, and lithium batteries as the background to review the design idea of functional materials based on the porphyrin structural unit in the energy sector. In addition, the modification and improvement strategies of porphyrin are presented by visually showing the molecular structures or the design synthesis routes of its functional materials. Finally, we provide some insights into the development of novel energy storage materials based on porphyrin frameworks.

Carbon microspheres (CMSs) are recognized as highly effective microwave absorbers due to their exceptional wave absorption properties. In this study, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)porphyrin, a metamaterial, was chemically bonded to CMSs─considered a conjugated carbon structure─using a 1,3-dibromopropane linker to explore the synergistic properties and microwave absorption capabilities of the synthesized composite. The synthesized structures were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, FE-SEM, Fourier transform infrared, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and VNA analyses.

We report the synthesis of multifunctional periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (PMO NPs) with substantial two-photon absorption properties and targeting capability for two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) and photodynamic therapy (TPE-PDT). Prepared using an adapted sol-gel synthesis, the nanoplatforms integrated two silylated chromophores in their three-dimensional matrix to maximize non-radiative Förster resonance energy transfer from a high two-photon absorption fluorophore donor to a porphyrin derivative acceptor, leading to an enhanced generation of reactive oxygen species. Combinations of biodegradable and non-biodegradable bis(triethoxysilyl)alkoxysilanes were employed for the synthesis of the NPs, and the corresponding photophysical studies revealed high efficiency levels of FRET.

Biomimetic catalysis using porphyrins enables gentle oxidation of terpenes with molecular oxygen and light. This study explores the photooxidation of (-)-myrtenol under visible light to synthesize new terpenoid products with promising biological activity. Among the porphyrins tested, tetraphenylporphyrin (HTPP) exhibited the highest catalytic efficiency and stability in chloroform, producing myrtenal epoxide (ME) as the main product (with a molar conversion of myrtenol of 66.

The tetrapyrrolic macrocycle as a scaffold for various chemical modifications provides broad opportunities for the preparation of complex multifunctional conjugates suitable for binary antitumor therapies. Typically, illumination with monochromatic light triggers the photochemical generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (photodynamic effect). However, more therapeutically valuable effects can be achieved upon photoactivation of tetrapyrrole derivatives.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as an effective way to deal with drug-resistant bacterial infections. Especially, blue light (BL) mediated PDT (BL-PDT) presents unique advantages in the treatments of skin infection due to the strong light absorption of superficial skin, weak penetration of BL and little damage to deep tissues. However, the photosensitizers used for BL-PDT are very limited, and the ongoing development of novel BL photosensitizers is indispensable.
