Introduction Porphyrins and metalloporphyrins play an important role in compounds, corroles, contracted porphyrin analogues [31-33], chemistry, biology, medical and materials sciences because of assumed an important place in porphyrin chemistry due to their their presence in biological compounds such as chlorophyll and small cavities, trianionic characters, high fluorescence quantum heme molecules that have very important functions in the yields and favorable electronic properties.

In recent years, efforts in conjugates have been successfully used as donor–acceptor porphyrin chemistry have been focused on the synthesis of systems in photoinduced charge separation processes. It was multichromophore containing compounds and their potential shown that derivatives of these conjugates could be potentially applications in molecular wires, sensors, nonlinear optical used in photovoltaic applications [21-23].

  • 1 INTRODUCTION Corroles Are Tetrapyrrolic Molecules, Maintaining
    1 Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Corroles are tetrapyrrolic molecules, maintaining the skeletal structure of corrin, with its three meso carbon positions and one direct pyrrole-pyrrole linkage, and possessing the aromaticity of porphyrins (see figure 1.1). First reported by Johnson and Kay in 1965[1], corroles were the end product of a many step synthetic scheme, finally being formed by the photocyclization of a,c-biladienes. While this last step was simple, with 20-60% yields, the route to a,c-biladienes was far from easy. Indeed, the overall reaction from readily available starting materials to corrole was a multi-step synthesis, with poor yields in many of the reactions. Thus, while corroles have been known for more than 40 years, research in the field was slow to progress. It wasn’t until the discovery of new synthetic methods for corroles developed in 1999 by different groups working independently that research in this area really started to expand[2]. This is not to say, however, that the field of corrole research was non-existent prior to the development of the new methodologies. While it was slow growing after the initial publication, it was far from stagnant, and many of the interesting properties of corroles were investigated by different groups. Among these properties is their ability to stabilize unusually high formal oxidation states of metal ions, such as iron(IV), cobalt(IV), and cobalt(V)[3, 4].

Each kind of com- plexes has its unique features, which are discussed. The peripheral complexes are dual-emissive: they display both neodymium(III) 4f-emission and molecular fluorescence. The values of quantum yield of molecular fluorescence as well as 4f-luminescence are estimated. It was found that binding type plays a key role in excited state relaxation pathways in the molecule. Corroles have unusual behaviour in terms of Nd sensitization. Keywords: Tetrapyrroles, luminescence, neodymium, porphyrin, phthalocyanine, corrole.

  • 5 SYNTHESES While the Initial Synthesis of Corroles Was a Very Long Procedure, the Advent of a One Pot Synthesis by Gross and Co
    5 Chapter 2 SYNTHESES While the initial synthesis of corroles was a very long procedure, the advent of a one pot synthesis by Gross and co-workers in 1999 revolutionized the process of making corroles. It is now possible to make hundreds of milligrams of free-base corrole in a single day, compared to weeks or even months of work with the previous methods. Detailed in this chapter are the synthetic methods used for the corroles studied in this work, including two different free-bases; gallium, manganese, and tin complexes of these free-bases; and work done toward the synthesis of an indium corrole. The particular corrole free-bases used in this study were 5,10,15- tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole, and 2,17-bis(sulfonato)-5,10-15- tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole. The structures for these two molecules are shown in figure 2.1. General Synthetic Procedures All corroles used in this work are derived from the first of these, 5,10,15- tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (1), which in turn is synthesized from pyrrole and pentafluorobenzaldehyde. This can be accomplished by different methods, either involving a solid support, an acid to aid the reaction, or neat. All three methods will be described at the end of this chapter.

We present our results on the effect of substitution on the photophysical properties of donor- acceptor (D-A) systems in which triphenylamine is the donor and substituted corroles i.e., 5,15-phenyl-10- triphenylaminecorrole TPACor 1, 5,15-di(3,5-ditertbutylphenyl)-10-triphenylaminecorrole TPACor 2, and 5,15-(4-nitrophenyl)-10-triphenylaminecorrole TPACor 3 is the acceptor. All three dyads have been character- ized by elemental analysis, MALDI-MS, cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis and fluorescence (steady state and time- resolved) spectroscopies. Both Soret and Q bands of TPACor 3 are red-shifted when compared to other two dyads due to the presence of electron withdrawing nitro group. Similarly, redox properties of TPACor 3 are altered, when correlated to TPACor 1 and TPACor 2 dyads. However, the fluorescence emission of tripheny- lamine in all three dyads was quenched significantly (>90%) compared to its monomeric unit. The presence of either electron releasing or electron withdrawing group on corrole moiety has not much effect on the photo- physical properties. The quenched emission was attributed to intramolecular excitation energy transfer and the photoinduced electron transfer reactions contested in these dyads.

Signifcant advances in cancer treatment and imaging have been reported based on work with a water-soluble bis-sulfonated gallium corrole in both cellular and rodent-based models. We now show that cytotoxicities increase in the order Ga < Fe < Al < Mn < Sb < Au for bis-sulfonated corroles; and, importantly, that they correlate with metallocorrole afnities for very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), the main carrier of lipophilic drugs. As chemotherapeutic potential is predicted to be enhanced by increased lipophilicity, we have developed a novel method for the preparation of cell-penetrating lipophilic metallocorrole/serum-protein nanoparticles (NPs). Cryo-TEM revealed an average core metallocorrole particle size of 32 nm, with protein tendrils extending from the core (conjugate size is ~100 nm). Optical imaging of DU-145 prostate cancer cells treated with corrole NPs (≤100 nM) revealed fast cellular uptake, very slow release, and distribution into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lysosomes. The physical properties of corrole NPs prepared in combination with transferrin and albumin were alike, but the former were internalized to a greater extent by the transferrin-receptor-rich DU-145 cells.

Comparisons based on X-ray crystallographic data are made between a range of heavier transition metal, lanthanide, actinide, and main group metallocorrole species. Chapter 2: Synthesis of Lithium Corrole and its Use as a Reagent for the Preparation of Cyclopentadienyl Zirconium and Titanium Corrole Complexes The unprecedented lithium corrole complex (Mes2(p-OMePh)corrole)Li3·6THF (2- 1·6THF), prepared via deprotonation of the free-base corrole with lithium amide, acts as precursor for the preparation of cyclopentadienyl zirconium(IV) corrole (2-2) and pentamethylcyclopentadienyl titanium(IV) corrole (2-3).
