Graphical Abstract
  • -triazole-ruthenium(II) conjugates 112a,b and 116a,b in 18–20% yield. Their photophysical and electrochemical studies revealed that the orbital energies depend on the ligands/linker, connecting pattern of linkers, and the presence of Zn metal ions in the porphyrin core. Ligand exchange studies also
  • suggested a weak intramolecular inter-porphyrin communication. Further investigation also revealed that the interaction of the star compound 129 with DABCO and Bipy possibly led to the double star formed by the axial coordination of ligand with zinc centers. The synthesis of supramolecular nanoassemblies
