The optical limiting properties of five optically active phthalocynines substituted with chiral binaphthyl crown ether units, (R)- and (S)- BNCE - H 2 Pc , (R)- and (S)-BNCE-CuPc, (S)-BNCE-PbPc, were investigated in solution at 532 nm with 10 ns pulses. The experimental results indicated that the (S)- and (R)-optical isomer exhibit similar optical limiting behavior and the central metal ions, Cu or Pb in the optically active metal phthalocyanine have not significantly enhanced the optical limiting behavior compared with that of the optically active metal-free phthalocyanine. In addition, the nonlinear absorption of the optically active metal-free and metal phthalocyanines was determined by the standard open aperture Z-scan technique.

A series of porphyrin triads (1–6), based on the reaction of trans-dihydroxo-[5,15-bis(3-pyridyl)-10,20-bis(phenyl)porphyrinato]tin(IV) (SnP) with six different phenoxy Zn(II)-porphyrins (ZnLn), was synthesized. The cooperative metal–ligand coordination of 3-pyridyl nitrogens in the SnP with the phenoxy Zn(II)-porphyrins, followed by the self-assembly process, leads to the formation of nanostructures. The red-shifts and remarkable broadening of the absorption bands in the UV–vis spectra for the triads in CHCl3 indicate that nanoaggregates may be produced in the self-assembly process of these triads. The emission intensities of the triads were also significantly reduced due to the aggregation. Microscopic analyses of the nanostructures of the triads reveal differences due to the different substituents on the axial Zn(II)-porphyrin moieties. All these nanomaterials exhibited efficient photocatalytic performances in the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) dye under visible light irradiation, and the degradation efficiencies of RhB in aqueous solution were observed to be 72~95% within 4 h. In addition, the efficiency of the catalyst was not impaired, showing excellent recyclability even after being applied for the degradation of RhB in up to five cycles.

This article summarizes the recent developments in the construction of multicomponent molecular hollowed-out cages through the metal–ligand coordination-driven self-assembly process, with a focus on the decreasing relevance of the use of templates.
