Abstract
Abstract As a model of bacterial photosynthetic light-harvesting antenna, a large number of porphyrin units were organized into barrel-shaped macrorings. Two imidazolylporphyrinatozinc (II) molecules were linked through either unsubstituted thiophenes or 3, 4-dioctylthiophenes 1 a and 1 b, respectively. These structures were spontaneously organized by complementary coordination of the imidazolyl to zinc and ...
