Abstract The 1:1 complex of a bis(acridinium-Zn(II)porphyrin) host and a tetrapyridyl free-base porphyrin guest shows a remarkable interplay of energy and electron transfer (eT) processes, finely tuned by the solvent polarity or the selection of the photoexcited component. A more polar environment…
Abstract The discovery of a stable organic radical formed under mild, clean, and efficient light-mediated conditions is reported. The structure of the stable acridinium-based radical photoproduct was unambiguously established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, mass spectrometry, and in solution…
Abstract In this review, the difference between π-mers (pimers) and π-dimers (pi-dimers) will be discussed. Often interchanged or confused in the literature, these two radical interactions lead to different or even opposite physico-chemical behaviors. This review aims at clarifying the terms π-mers…
Abstract A multi-responsive receptor consisting of two (acridinium-Zn(II) porphyrin) conjugates has been designed. The binding constant between this receptor and a ditopic guest has been modulated (i) upon addition of nucleophiles converting acridinium moieties into the non-aromatic acridane…
Abstract A [2]rotaxane built around a multi-responsive bis-acridinium macrocycle has been synthesized. Structural investigation has confirmed the interlocked nature of the molecule, and MD simulations illuminated its conformational dynamics with atomic resolution. Both halochromic and…

Abstract The complexation processes of N,N'‐dibutyl‐1,4,5,8‐naphthalene diimide (NDI) into two types of π‐electron‐rich molecular containers consisting of two Zn(II)‐porphyrins connected by four flexible linkers of two different lengths, were characterized by means of absorption and emission…
Abstract A bis‐acridinium cyclophane incorporating switchable acridinium moieties linked by a 3,5‐dipyridylanisole spacer was studied as a multi‐responsive host for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon guests. Complexation of perylene was shown to be the most effective and was characterized in…
Abstract Synergistic action in a bimetallic nanosized catalyst: A bimetallic catalyst consisting of a flexible molecular cage with two Co(III) porphyrins is investigated to convert CO2 and epoxides into cyclic carbonates. The preorganisation of the two metal centres in the hollow framework favours…
Abstract Despite the advantages of photodynamic therapy (PDT) over chemotherapy or radiotherapy such as low side effects, lack of treatment resistance and spatial selectivity inherent to light activation of the drug, several limitations especially related to the photosensitiser (PS) prevent PDT…
Abstract The allosteric control of the receptor properties of two flexible covalent cages is reported. These receptors consist of two zinc(II) porphyrins connected by four linkers of two different sizes, each incorporating two 1,2,3-triazolyl ligands. Silver(I) ions act as effectors, responsible…
