Solvent-regulated biomorphs from the intense π,π-mediated assemblies of tetracenequinone fused porphyrin†‡
Abstract
Tetracenequinone fused porphyrin Ni4TQ has been synthesized and the long tetracenequinone units at the vertices of porphyrin exhibit an intense π,π-interaction, which can be regulated by solvents to furnish different shapes of crystals or various uniform flower-shaped biomorphs.
