Electrochemistry and spectroelectrochemistry of meso-substituted free-base corroles in nonaqueous media: reactions of (Cor)H3, [(Cor)H4]+, and [(Cor)H2]-.
TL;DR: Eleven free-base corroles with different electron-donating or electron-withdrawing meso substituents were characterized as to their electrochemistry and UV-visible spectroscopically identified in benzonitrile or pyridine containing tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate.

Control of the site and potential of reduction and oxidation processes in π-expanded quinoxalinoporphyrins
Paul J. Sintic,Wenbo E,Zhongping Ou,Jianguo Shao,James A. McDonald,Zheng-Li Cai,Karl M. Kadish,Maxwell J. Crossley,Jeffrey R. Reimers +8 more
TL;DR: Spectroelectrochemistry, density-functional theory calculations, and substituent-parameter models are used, and the verified prediction that electron-paramagnetic resonance spectra of these molecules taken without the electrolyte yield delocalized anions is verified.

Photophysical, electrochemical characteristics and cross-linking of STAT-3 protein by an efficient bifunctional agent for fluorescence image-guided photodynamic therapy
Yihui Chen,Kei Ohkubo,Min Zhang,Wenbo E,Weiguo Liu,Suresh K. Pandey,Michael J. Ciesielski,Heinz Baumann,Tracy Erin,Shunichi Fukuzumi,Karl M. Kadish,Robert A. Fenstermaker,Allan R. Oseroff,Ravindra K. Pandey +13 more
TL;DR: Compared to HPPH alone, the presence of the cyanine dye moiety in the conjugate produces a significantly higher uptake in tumors than in skin, which can be used as a dual tumor imaging and photodynamic therapy agent.
Synthesis, electrochemistry and spectroelectrochemistry of tetraundecylporphyrins in nonaqueous media
Karl M. Kadish,Zhongping Ou,Zhongping Ou,Riqiang Zhan,Tony Khoury,Wenbo E,Maxwell J. Crossley +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the meso-substituted tetraundecylporphyrins were prepared in high yield using an improved synthetic method and then characterized by electrochemistry and spectroelectrochemistry as well as UV-vis, FTIR and NMR spectroscopy.
