Physical and chemical properties of porphyrins are often related to their compositions and structures.

The results indicate that tetrapyrrole and tetraphenyl rings in TPPS<sub>4</sub> molecule form a co-planar electron conjugation system; transition-metal ions show stronger binding capacity than alkali and alkali-earth metal ions; the relative stabilities of TPPS<sub>4</sub>-metal ion complexes can be well assessed by NMR and UV-visible spectral data.</p>","PeriodicalId":81322,"journal":{"name":"Georgia journal of science : official publication of the Georgia Academy of Science","volume":"69 2-3","pages":"89-101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3615901/pdf/nihms337646.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"31431918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
