, p. 280 - 292 (2015)
A new triad system featuring one zinc porphyrin and one fullerene moieties attached to a central redox-active Re(I) connector was obtained in remarkable yield by cleverly exploiting a facile two-step synthesis. Detailed description and discussion on the characterization of this multicomponent system and of its parent free-base analogue are presented, along with a kinetic study of the stepwise electron-transfer processes occurring upon visible excitation.
Systematic synthesis and photochemistry of tetraaryl porphyrins mono-substituted with a transition metal carbonyl: characterisation of a zinc porhyrin-rhenium carbonyl complex

A systematic synthesis designed to connect a metalloporphyrin to a metal carbonyl moiety is demonstrated through a zinc tetraphenyl porphyrin substituted with Re(CO)3(4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridyl)Br via an amide bond; the emission and excited state absorption spectra are dominated by porphyrin transitions.
