Abstract: We herein report the synthesis and magnetic properties of a Ni(II)-porphyrin tethered to an imidazole ligand through a flexible electron-responsive mechanical hinge. The latter is capable of undergoing a large litude and fully reversible folding motion under the effect of electrical stimulation. This redox-triggered movement is exploited to force the axial coordination of the appended imidazole ligand onto the square-planar Ni(II) center, resulting in a change in its spin state from low spin (

Abstract: Stimuli-responsive self-assembled molecular materials are currently subject to intense research activity. This growing interest stems largely from the myriad of exciting applications envisioned for dynamic supramolecular assemblies, also known as dynamers, in materials science, sensing, catalysis and electronics. Enormous technologic interests are for instance at stake in being able to devise molecular objects that could respond to external stimuli by changes in structure and function. These particular properties can lead to applications in various domains as (i) in molecular electronics, (ii) in analytic science, with switchable hosts allowing the controlled binding/release of pollutants or drugs, (iii) in materials science with the development of adaptive supramolecular polymers. Our group has been focusing over the past few years on the development of tailor-made redox-controllable molecular and supramolecular systems involving electrogenerated pi-radicals as key responsive and/or assembling elements [1-3]. In this lecture, we will focus on the physico-chemical properties of a series of porphyrin-based molecular tectons whose self-assembly can be controlled with optical or electrical stimulus. The dynamic properties of these stimuli-responsive molecular architectures and molecular materials will mainly be discussed on the basis of electrochemical, spectroelectrochemical and ESR experiments supported by quantum chemical calculations [4-7].

Abstract: CF 3 ‐substituted porphyrins have attracted increasing interest over the past decade. However, the number of ex les reported in the literature remains quite limited and much remains to be done to understand the properties and reactivity of these molecules. We are now reporting on the synthesis of a series of free base porphyrins incorporating one, two and three CF 3 substituents, including the 5,10,15‐tris(CF 3 ) substituted porphyrin which has never been described before. We have also carried out detailed electrochemical and spectroscopic analyses aiming at assessing the electron‐withdrawing properties of the CF 3 substituents compared to the widely used C 6 F 5 . Our studies led us to propose an interpretation of the quite unusual electrochemical signature of these molecules featuring three successive one‐electron reduction waves.
