Abstract:
(Base de datos de tesis doctorales TESEO) English versionIn this doctoral thesis two main aspects are developed. The first is the synthesis of bis-porphyrin receptors metallated with zinc, both acyclic and cyclic, and with different degrees of saturation of the carbon chain, and the second deals with the studies of complexation with ligands of different types and properties: amines and fullerenes. The first ligands are connected by metal-nitrogen coordination between the nitrogen of the ligand and the zinc of the porphyrin ring, while the latter are    interactions between the aromatic ring of the porphyrin and the fullerenes.In addition, we present the results obtained when derive one of the cyclopeptides of the research group of Prof. J.R. Granja with one or two zinc porphyrins, using the motif: 'sandwich' complexes between bis-porphyrins and ditopic amines, in order to control the regioisomeric mixture that takes place in the self-assembly of the cyclopeptides.
