Abstract
The field of corrole systems, particularly those with functional groups at their peripheral positions, has experienced a surge of interest in recent years, driven by their exceptional optical and electronic properties, which hold significant promise for a range of applications. This timely review article mainly focuses on synthetic strategies of reaction of meso-triarylcorroles having formyl or acroleyl groups at peripheral positions, with specific emphasis on the influence of core-metal insertion, the quantity of reagent and meso-substituents. Corroles bearing formyl and acroleyl substituents have been exploited as synthons for preparing novel compounds with a magnificent bouquet of characteristics. Furthermore, the reactivity of these corroles derivatives with active methylene compounds and substituted pyrroles is highlighted. The detailed exploration of these functionalizations is helping to advance new developments in the field. Additionally, the review addresses the potential applications of corroles in chemosensing, catalysis, photovoltaics, and nonlinear optics. It also examines the systematic advancements in the optical properties of corroles, providing a thorough overview of their photophysical and redox characteristics. This will help researchers working in this area and promote exceptional future investigations.

Abstract
The high risk of CO poisoning justifies the need for indoor air quality control and warning systems based on the detection of low concentrations (ppm-ppb) of CO. Cobalt corrole complexes selectively bind CO vs. O2, CO2, N2, opening new fields of applications. By combining the CO chemisorption properties of cobalt corroles with the known sorption capacity of MOFs, we hope to obtain high performance sensing materials for CO detection. In addition, the exposed metal sites of MOFs lead to CO2 physisorption, allowing the co-detection of CO and CO2. In this work, PCN-222, a stable Zr-based MOF made from Ni(TCPP) with natural vacancies, has been used as a porous matrix for the grafting of electron-poor metallocorroles. The materials were characterized by powder XRD, SEM and optical microscopy, BET analyses and gas adsorption measurements at 298 K. No degradation of the crystalline structure of PCN-222 was observed. At 1 atm, the adsorbed CO(g) volumes measured for the best materials were 12.15 cm3 g-1 and 14.01 cm3 g-1 for CoCorr2@PCN-222 and CoCorr3@PCN-222 respectively, and both materials exhibited high CO chemisorption and selectivity against O2, N2, and CO2 at low pressure due to the highest energy of the chemisorption process vs physisorption.

Abstract
In this study, we present two fully characterized nickel tetrathiocyanocorroles, representing a novel class of 3d-metallocorroles. These nickel(II) ions form square planar complexes, exhibiting a d8-electronic configuration. These anionic complexes are stabilized by the electron-withdrawing SCN groups on the bipyrrole unit of the corrole. The reduced aromaticity in these anionic nickel(II) corrole complexes is evidenced by single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) data and a markedly altered absorption profile, with stronger Q bands compared to Soret bands. Notably, the UV-Vis and electrochemical data exhibit significant differences from previously reported nickel(II) corrole radical cation and nickel(II) porphyrin complexes. While these electrochemical data bear a resemblance to those of the anionic nickel(II) corrole by Gross et al., the UV-Vis data show substantial distinctions. Additionally, we explore the utilization of nickel(II)-corrole@CC (where CC denotes carbon cloth) as an electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline medium. During electrochemical water oxidation, the molecular catalyst is partially converted to nickel (oxy)hydroxide, Ni(O)OH. The structure reveals the coexistence of the molecular complex and Ni(O)OH in the active catalyst, achieving a turnover frequency (TOF) of 3.32 × 10-2 s-1. The synergy between the homogeneous and heterogeneous phases improves the OER activity, providing more active sites and edge sites and enhancing interfacial charge transfer.

Abstract
We imagine molecules to be perfect, but rigidified units can be designed to bend from their ideal shape, discarding their symmetric elements as they progress through vibrations and larger, more permanent distortions. The shape of molecules is either simulated or measured by crystallography and strongly affects chemical properties but, beyond an image or tabulation of atom-to-atom distances, little is often discussed of the accessed conformation. We have simplified the process of shape quantification across multiple molecular types with a new web-accessible program - SCSD - through which a molecular subunit possessing near-symmetry can be dissected into symmetry coordinates with ease. This parameterization allows a common set of numbers for comparing and understanding molecular shape, and is a simple method for database analysis; this program is available at https://www.kingsbury.id.au/scsd.

Abstract
A sterically encumbered trans-A2B-corrole possessing a perylenediimide (PDI) scaffold in close proximity to the macrocycle has been synthesized via a straightforward route. Electronic communication as probed via steady-state absorption or cyclic voltammetry is weak in the ground state, in spite of the corrole ring and PDI being bridged by an o-phenylene unit. The TDDFT excited-state geometry optimization suggests after excitation the interchromophoric distance is markedly reduced, thus enhancing the through-space electronic coupling between the corrole and the PDI. This is corroborated by the strong deviation of the emission spectrum originating from both PDI and corrole in the dyad. Selective excitation of both donor and acceptor units triggers efficient sub-picosecond electron transfer and hole transfer, respectively, followed by fast charge recombination. In comparison to previously studied corrole-PDI dyads, both charge separation and charge recombination occur faster, because of the structural relaxation in the excited state.

Abstract
Ground-state and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations with the long-range-corrected, Coulomb-attenuating CAMY-B3LYP exchange-correlation functional and large, all-electron STO-TZ2P basis sets have been used to examine the potential "inverse hypercorrole" character of meso-p-nitrophenyl-appended dicyanidocobalt(III) corrole dianions. The effect is most dramatic for 5,15-bis(p-nitrophenyl) derivatives, where it manifests itself in intense NIR absorptions. The 10-aryl groups in these complexes play a modulatory role, as evinced by experimental UV-visible spectroscopic and electrochemical data for a series of 5,15-bis(p-nitrophenyl) dicyanidocobalt(III) corroles. TDDFT (CAMY-B3LYP) calculations ascribe these features clearly to a transition from the corrole's a2u-like HOMO (retaining the D4h irrep used for metalloporphyrins) to a nitrophenyl-based LUMO. The outward nature of this transition contrasts with the usual phenyl-to-macrocycle direction of charge transfer transitions in many hyperporphyrins and hypercorroles; thus, the complexes studied are aptly described as inverse hypercorroles.

Abstract
In the search for mild agents for the oxidative cyclization of tetrapyrromethane to the corresponding corrole, we discovered a route that leads to a monoazaporphyrin with three meso-CF3 groups. Optimization studies that allowed access to appreciable amounts of this new macrocycle paved the way for the preparation of its cobalt, copper, nickel, zinc, and iron complexes. All complexes were fully characterized by various spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography. Their photophysical and electrochemical properties were determined and compared to those of analogous porphyrins in order to deduce the effect of the peripheral N atom. Considering the global efforts for designing efficient alternatives to platinum group metal (PGM) catalysts, they were also absorbed onto a porous carbon electrode material and studied as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The cobalt complex was found to be operative at a quite positive catalytic onset potential and with good selectivity for the desirable 4-electrons/4-protons pathway.

Abstract
A solventless and acid-catalyzed condensation of meso-perfluoroalkyl-dipyrromethanes with selected benzaldehydes was used to prepare ten different bilanes that were isolated before their oxidation into trans-A2B-corroles bearing two meso-perfluoroalkyl groups. Macrocycles bearing long chains (C3F7 or C7F15) are key precursors to afford ABC-corroles having a meso-acyl substituent when subjected to a mild and basic hydrolysis affecting one of the alkyl substituents.

Abstract
The heavy-atom effect is known to enhance the intersystem crossing (ISC) in organic molecular systems. Effects of iodine numbers and positions on the ISC rate of a few meso-difluorophenyl substituted β-iodinated phosphorus corroles (PCs) with axially ligated fluorine atoms (mI-FPC; m = 1-4) are studied using a time-dependent optimally tuned range-separated hybrid. Solvent effects are accounted for through a polarizable continuum model with a toluene dielectric. Calculations suggest similar thermodynamic stability for all mI-FPCs and also reproduce the experimentally measured 0-0 energies for some of the freebase phosphorus corrole (FPC) systems studied here. Importantly, our results reveal that all mI-FPCs display 10 times larger ISC rate (∼109 s-1) than the fluorescence rate (∼108 s-1), and the higher ISC rate stems from the improved spin-orbit coupling (SOC) introduced by lighter heteroatoms like central P and biaxial F rather than the I heavy-atom effect. However, an enhanced SOC is found with increasing I content for El-Sayed forbidden ISC channels. Research findings reported in this study unveil the impact of light heteroatoms and heavy atoms in promoting ISC in several iodinated PCs, which help in designing visible-light-driven efficient triplet photosensitizers.

Abstract
Four new β-functionalized π-extended cobalt corroles with one and two dicyanovinyl (DCV) or dicyanobutadienyl (DCBD) moieties at the 3- and 3,17-positions have been synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. Interestingly, the synthesized DCV- and DCBD-appended cobalt corroles displayed panchromatic and near-infrared absorption in the range 300-1100 nm in CH2Cl2 and pyridine solvents. (MN)2-(Cor)Co and A2MN2-(Cor)Co exhibited 8-9 times enhancement in the molar absorptivity of the Q band compared to the parent corrole ((Cor)Co). The unique absorption spectral features of these β-functionalized cobalt corroles are splitting, broadening, and red-shifting in the Soret and Q bands. One DCV unit brings a 30-46 nm red shift, whereas one DCBD unit brings a 40-75 nm red shift in the Q band compared to the corresponding precursors. This is rare that the intensity of the longest Q band is greater than or equal to the Soret-like bands. These corrole derivatives exhibit UV-vis spectral features similar to those of chlorophyll a. A 220 mV positive shift per DCV group and 160 mV positive shift per DCBD group were observed in the first oxidation potentials compared to (Cor)Co in the desired direction for the utility of these cobalt complexes in electrocatalysis. DFT studies revealed that HOMO and LUMO were stabilized after appending DCV and DCBD groups on the corrole macrocycle and exhibited a "push-pull" behavior leading to promising material applications in nonlinear optics (NLO) and catalysis.

Abstract
A new class of antimony(III) corroles has been described. The photophysical properties of these newly synthesized tetrakis(thiocyano)corrolatoantimony(III) derivatives having four SCN groups on the bipyrrole unit of corrole are drastically altered compared to their β-unsubstituted corrolatoantimony(III) analogues. The UV-vis and emission spectra of tetrakis(thiocyano)corrolatoantimony(III) derivatives are significantly red-shifted (roughly 30-40 nm) in comparison with their β-unsubstituted corrolatoantimony(III) derivatives. The Q bands are significantly strengthened. The intensity of the most prominent Q band is roughly 70% that of the Soret band and absorbs strongly at the far-red region, i.e., at 700-720 nm. These molecules emit light in the near-infrared region (700-900 nm). Tetrakis(thiocyano)corrolatoantimony(III) undergoes electrochemical anodic oxidation to form SbV═O species, which facilitates electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and the activation of benzylic C-H to produce benzoic acid selectively. Under optimized conditions, SbIII-corrole@NF (NF = nickel foam) required an overpotential of 380 mV to reach a 50 mA cm-2 current density, comparable with those of other transition-metal-based complexes. On the other hand, replacing the anodic OER with benzyl alcohol oxidation lowered the required potential by 150 mV (at 300 mA cm-2) to improve the energy efficiency of the electrochemical process.

Abstract
Alkylation of one of the inner-core nitrogen atoms is one possible approach to obtain dianionic corrole ligands, suitable for the coordination of divalent metal ions, such as PdII . Inner-core N-methylation can be obtained by treating the corrole with CH3 I, but the reaction conditions should be optimized to limit the formation of the dimethylated derivative. Two regioisomers, the N-21 and the N-22 methyl derivatives are obtained from the reaction, with the first product achieved in a higher amount. Structural characterization of the reaction products evidenced the distortion induced by the introduction of the methyl groups; the N-methylcorroles are chiral compounds, and the enantiomers were separated by chromatography, with their absolute configuration assigned by ECD computation. Palladium insertion was achieved in the case of monosubstituted corroles, but not with the dimethylated macrocycle; X-ray characterization of the complexes showed the distortion of the macrocycles. The Pd complexes do not show luminescence emission, but are able to produce singlet oxygen upon irradiation. The PdII complexes were also inserted in human serum albumin (HSA) and dispersed in water; in this case, the protein protects the corroles from photobleaching, and a switch from the type II to the type I mechanism in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is observed.

Abstract
Considering the worldwide efforts for designing catalysts that are not based on platinum group metals while still reserving the many advantages thereof, this study focused on the many variables that dictate the performance of cathodes used for fuel cells, regarding the efficient and selective reduction of oxygen to water. This was done by investigating two kinds of porous carbon electrodes, modified by molecular cobalt(III) complexes chelated by corroles that differ very much in size and electron-withdrawing capability. Examination of the electronic effect uncovered shifts in the CoII/CoIII redox potentials and also large differences in the affinity of the cobalt center to external ligands. Spontaneous absorption of the catalysts was found to depend on the size of the corrole's substituents (C6F5 ≫ CF3 ≫ H) and the metal's axial ligands (PPh3 versus pyridine), as well as on the porosity of the carbon electrodes (BP2000 > Vulcan). The better-performing cobalt-based catalysts were almost as active and selective as 20% platinum on Vulcan in terms of the onset potential and the only 2-10% undesirable formation of hydrogen peroxide. Durability was also addressed by using the best-performing modified cathode in a proper anion-exchange membrane fuel cell setup, revealing very little voltage change during 12 h of operation.

Abstract
Heme proteins perform diverse biochemical functions using a single iron porphyrin cofactor. This versatility makes them attractive platforms for the development of new functional proteins. While directed evolution and metal substitution have expanded the properties, reactivity, and applications of heme proteins, the incorporation of porphyrin analogs remains an underexplored approach. This review discusses the replacement of heme with non-porphyrin cofactors, such as porphycene, corrole, tetradehydrocorrin, phthalocyanine, and salophen, and the attendant properties of these conjugates. While structurally similar, each ligand exhibits distinct optical and redox properties, as well as unique chemical reactivity. These hybrids serve as model systems to elucidate the effects of the protein environment on the electronic structure, redox potentials, optical properties, or other features of the porphyrin analog. Protein encapsulation can confer distinct chemical reactivity or selectivity of artificial metalloenzymes that cannot be achieved with the small molecule catalyst alone. Additionally, these conjugates can interfere with heme acquisition and uptake in pathogenic bacteria, providing an inroad to innovative antibiotic strategies. Together, these examples illustrate the diverse functionality that can be achieved by cofactor substitution. The further expansion of this approach will access unexplored chemical space, enabling the development of superior catalysts and the creation of heme proteins with emergent properties.

Abstract
At present, porphyrin is developing rapidly in the fields of medicine, energy, catalysts, etc. More and more reports on its application are being published. This paper mainly takes the ingenious utilization of porphyrin derivatives in perovskite solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, and lithium batteries as the background to review the design idea of functional materials based on the porphyrin structural unit in the energy sector. In addition, the modification and improvement strategies of porphyrin are presented by visually showing the molecular structures or the design synthesis routes of its functional materials. Finally, we provide some insights into the development of novel energy storage materials based on porphyrin frameworks.

Abstract
The versatility of metal complexes of corroles has raised interest in the use of these molecules as elements of chemical sensors. The tuning of the macrocycle properties via synthetic modification of the different components of the corrole ring, such as functional groups, the molecular skeleton, and coordinated metal, allows for the creation of a vast library of corrole-based sensors. However, the scarce conductivity of most of the aggregates of corroles limits the development of simple conductometric sensors and requires the use of optical or mass transducers that are rather more cumbersome and less prone to be integrated into microelectronics systems. To compensate for the scarce conductivity, corroles are often used to functionalize the surface of conductive materials such as graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, or conductive polymers. Alternatively, they can be incorporated into heterojunction devices where they are interfaced with a conductive material such as a phthalocyanine. Herewith, we introduce two heterostructure sensors combining lutetium bisphthalocyanine (LuPc2) with either 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl) corrolato Cu (1) or 5,10,15-tris(4-methoxyphenyl)corrolato Cu (2). The optical spectra show that after deposition, corroles maintain their original structure. The conductivity of the devices reveals an energy barrier for interfacial charge transport for 1/LuPc2, which is a heterojunction device. On the contrary, only ohmic contacts are observed in the 2/LuPc2 device. These different electrical properties, which result from the different electron-withdrawing or -donating substituents on corrole rings, are also manifested by the opposite response with respect to ammonia (NH3), with 1/LuPc2 behaving as an n-type conductor and 2/LuPC2 behaving as a p-type conductor. Both devices are capable of detecting NH3 down to 10 ppm at room temperature. Furthermore, the sensors show high sensitivity with respect to relative humidity (RH) but with a reversible and fast response in the range of 30-60% RH.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is among the more frequent causes of death in many countries. For pulmonary TB, early diagnosis greatly increases the efficiency of therapies. Although highly sensitive tests based on nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (TB-LAMP) are available, smear microscopy is still the most widespread diagnostics method in most low-middle-income countries, and the true positive rate of smear microscopy is lower than 65%. Thus, there is a need to increase the performance of low-cost diagnosis. For many years, the use of sensors to analyze the exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has been proposed as a promising alternative for the diagnosis of several diseases, including tuberculosis. In this paper, the diagnostic properties of an electronic nose (EN) based on sensor technology previously used to identify tuberculosis have been tested on-field in a Cameroon hospital. The EN analyzed the breath of a cohort of subjects including pulmonary TB patients (46), healthy controls (38), and TB suspects (16). Machine learning analysis of the sensor array data allows for the identification of the pulmonary TB group with respect to healthy controls with 88% accuracy, 90.8% sensitivity, 85.7% specificity, and 0.88 AUC. The model trained with TB and healthy controls maintains its performance when it is applied to symptomatic TB suspects with a negative TB-LAMP. These results encourage the investigation of electronic noses as an effective diagnostic method for future inclusion in clinical practice.

Abstract
A new family of β-dicyanovinyl (DCV)-appended corroles represented as MTPC(MN) (where M = 3H, Cu, Ag, and Co(PPh3) and MN = malononitrile and TPC = 5,10,15-triphenylcorrole) were synthesized starting from the free base mono β-formyl corrole, H3TPC(CHO), and characterized along with their respective MTPC(CHO) and MTPC complexes as to their spectroscopic and electrochemical properties in nonaqueous media. Comparisons between the two series of corroles demonstrate a pronounced substituent effect of the β-DCV group on the physicochemical properties making the MTPC(MN) derivatives substantially easier to reduce and more difficult to oxidize than the formyl or unsubstituted corroles. In addition, the colorimetric and spectral detection of 11 different anions (X) in the form of tetrabutylammonium salts (TBAX, X = PF6-, OAc-, H2PO4-, CN-, HSO4-, NO3-, ClO4-, F-, Cl-, Br-, and I-) were also investigated in nonaqueous media. Of the investigated anions, only CN- was found to induce changes in the UV-vis and 1H NMR spectra of the β-DCV metallocorroles. This data revealed that CuTPC(MN) and AgTPC(MN) act as chemodosimeters for selective cyanide ion detection via a nucleophilic attack at the vinylic carbon of the DCV substituent, while (PPh3)CoTPC(MN) acts as a chemosensor for cyanide ion sensing via axial coordination to the cobalt metal center. A low-limit detection of cyanide ions was observed at 1.69 ppm for CuTPC(MN) and 1.17 ppm for AgTPC(MN) in toluene.

Abstract
Two new meso-substituted oxido-molybdenum corroles were synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. In the thermogram, MoO[TTC] (1) exhibited excellent thermal stability up to 491 °C while MoO[TNPC] (2) exhibited good stability up to 318 °C. The oxidation states of the molybdenum(V) were verified by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and exhibited an axial compression with dxy1 configuration. Oxido-molybdenum(V) complexes were utilized for the selective epoxidation of various olefins with high TOF values (2066-3287 h-1) in good yields in a CH3CN/H2O (3:2, v/v) mixture in the presence of hydrogen peroxide as a green oxidant and NaHCO3 as a promoter. The oxidative bromination catalytic activity of oxido-molybdenum(V) complexes in an aqueous medium has been reported for the first time. Surprisingly, MoO[TNPC] (2) biomimics of the vanadium bromoperoxidase (VBPO) enzyme activity exhibited remarkably high TOF values (36 988-61 646 h-1) for the selective oxidative bromination of p-cresol and other phenol derivatives. Catalyst MoO[TNPC] (2) exhibited higher TOF values and better catalytic activity than catalyst MoO[TTC] (1) due to the presence of electron-withdrawing nitro groups evident from cyclic voltammetric studies.

Abstract
Four A2B-type CoIIIcorroles (2a-2d) with electron-donating/withdrawing substituents at the A2 meso-aryl substituents and a 4-(methylthio)phenyl ring at the B position have been synthesized and characterized, along with a series of meso-extended CoIIIcorroles (4a-4c) with 4'-(methylthio)biphenyl moieties. The electronic structures and structure-property relationships of the dyes have been analyzed by comparing their redox and optical properties to trends predicted in density functional theory calculations. Au electrodes surface-modified with 2a-2d and 4a-4c are highly efficient catalysts for electrocatalyzed hydrogen evolution reactions, and the electrocatalytic properties can be readily modulated by fine-tuning the electronic structure of the CoIIIcorrole and the distance between the "Au-S" bond and CoIII center.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis and evaluation of carboxylic acid corroles bearing either one, two, three of four carboxylic groups as gram-positive antibacterial agents against two strains of S. aureus, one methicillin-sensible (MSSA) and the other methicillin-resistant (MRSA). Lead compounds 5 and 6 show low minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 0.78 μg/mL against both MSSA and MRSA. These molecules, previously underexplored as antibacterial agents, can now serve as a new scaffold for antimicrobial development.

Abstract
Corroles are synthetic porphyrin analogs that contain one meso carbon atom lesser and bear a trianionic N4 metal-chelating core. They require in-depth preparative chemistry, demonstrate unique coordination chemistry and have impressive and diverse physical properties, and these are commonly compared to their respective porphyrins. The corrole's macrocyclic system is inherently electron rich and chelates metal ions in a more compact, less symmetric tetranitrogen cavity compared to that of porphyrins. Herein, we cover the highlights of the corrole research through the decades by first reviewing, in a chronological sense, multi-step syntheses; some routes have since been discontinued. This is followed by describing post-functionalization of already formed corroles via reactions performed on either the macrocycle's periphery or the inner nitrogen atoms or on the existing substituents. We do also mention milestones in literature reviewing, publication of encyclopedias, and the creation of professional organizations and conferences (ICPP) which make up the corrole/porphyrin research landscape. Also highlighted are still existing challenges and future perspectives.

Abstract
Safety assessment of carbon nanomaterials is of paramount importance since they are on the frontline for applications in sensing, bioimaging and drug delivery. The biocompatibility and safety of functionalized nanodiamonds (NDs) are here addressed through the study of the pro-inflammatory response of RAW-264.7 macrophages exposed to new nanodiamonds@corrole hybrids. The corrole unit selected is as a prototype for a hydrophobic organic molecule that can function as a NIR fluorophore reporter, an optical sensor, a photodynamic therapy agent or a photocatalyst. The new functional nanohybrids containing detonated nanodiamonds (NDs) were obtained through esterification using carboxylated NDs and glycol corroles. The success of the covalent functionalization via carbodiimide activation was confirmed through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The UV-vis absorption and emission spectra of the hybrids are additive with respect to the corrole features. The cellular uptake, localization, cell viability and effects on immune cell activation of the new hybrids and of the precursors were carefully investigated using RAW-264.7 macrophages. Overall results showed that the ND@corrole hybrids had no pro-inflammatory effects on the RAW-264.7 macrophage cell line, making them an ideal candidate for a wide range of biomedical applications.

Abstract
A series of boron, aluminum, gallium, and indium chelates containing the underexplored bis(phenolate) aza-dipyrromethene (aza-DIPY) core were prepared. These compounds were found to possess near-infrared absorption and emission profiles in the 710 to 770 nm domain and exhibit quantum yield values up to 14%. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that heavier group 13 bis(phenolate) aza-DIPY chelates possessed octahedral geometries with either THF or pyridine groups occupying the axial positions as opposed to the tetrahedral geometry of the boron chelate.

Abstract
Boron tribromide-mediated demethylation of rhenium-oxo and gold meso-tris(4-methoxyphenyl)corrole and meso-tris(3,5-dimethoxyphenylcorrole), M[TpOMePC] and M[T(3,5-OMe)PC] (M = ReO, Au), have yielded the corresponding phenol- and resorcinol-appended metallocorroles, M[TpOHPC] and M[T(3,5-OH)PC], in good yields. The latter compounds proved insoluble in dichloromethane and chloroform but soluble in THF. The M[T(3,5-OH)PC] derivatives also proved moderately soluble in 0.05 M aqueous KOH. Unlike oxidation-prone aminophenyl-substituted corroles, the phenol- and resorcinol-appended metallocorroles could be readily handled in air without special precautions. The phenolic metallocorroles could be readily alkylated with 4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,11-heptadecafluoroundecyl iodide ("FtI") to afford the fluorous-tagged metallocorroles M[TpOFtPC] and M[T(3,5-OFt)PC] in > 90% yields. The simplicity of the synthetic protocols promise a wide range of phenolic and fluorous-tagged porphyrin analogues with potential applications to diverse fields such as sensors, catalysis, and photodynamic therapy, among others.

Abstract
Details on the unexpected formation of two new (dimethylamino)methyl corrole isomers from the reaction of 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrolatogallium(III) with sarcosine and paraformaldehyde are presented. Semi-empirical calculations on possible mechanism pathways seem to indicate that the new compounds are probably formed through a Mannich-type reaction. The extension of the protocol to the free-base 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole afforded an unexpected new seven-membered ring corrole derivative, confirming the peculiar behavior of corroles towards known reactions when compared to the well-behaved porphyrin counterparts.

Abstract
![]()
The coordination chemistry of corrole has witnessed a
great improvement
in the past few years and its Periodic Table has been widened to be
so large that it is compared with that of porphyrins. However, Ni
and Zn ions, commonly used with porphyrins for both synthetic and
theoretical purposes, are sparsely reported in the case of corroles.
Here, we report synthetic protocols for preparing Ni and Zn triarylcorrole
complexes. In the case of Zn, the preliminary oxidation of the free
base corrole in DMSO to the neutral corrole radical is a necessary
step to obtain the coordination of the metal ion, because the direct
reaction led to the formation of an open-chain tetrapyrrole. The Ni
complex could be directly obtained by heating the free base corrole
and Ni(II) salt to 100 °C in a DMSO solution containing FeCl3. The non-innocent nature of the corrole ligand for both complexes
has been elucidated by EPR, and in the case of the Zn derivative the
first spectroelectrochemical characterization is presented. The oxidation of triarylcorrole to the
corresponding neutral
radical species in DMSO is a key step to allow the preparation of
the corresponding Ni and Zn complexes. Without this step, the oxidative
ring opening of the macrocycle occurs, leading to the formation of
a linear tetrapyrrole. The spectroscopic characterization of these
species indicates their radical character. The stability of the Zn
complex can be improved by peripheral substitution.

Abstract
Solar-driven photocatalytic generation of hydrogen from water is a potential source of clean and renewable fuel. Yet systems that are sufficiently stable and efficient for practical use have not been realized. Here, nanorod photocatalysts that have proven record activity for the water reduction half reaction were successfully combined with molecular metallocorroles suitable for catalyzing the accompanying oxidation reactions. Utilization of OH- /⋅OH redox species as charge transfer shuttle between freely mixed metallocorroles and rods resulted in quantum efficiency that peaked as high as 17 % for hydrogen production from water in the absence of sacrificial hole scavengers. While typically each sacrificial scavenger is able to extract but a single hole, here the molecular metallocorrole catalysts were found to successfully handle nearly 300,000 holes during their lifespan. The implications of the new system on the prospects of realizing practical overall water splitting and direct solar-to-fuel energy conversion were discussed.

Abstract
Presented herein are two fully characterized gold tetrathiocyanocorroles representing a potentially significant new class of NIR-emissive 5d-metallocorroles. The four SCN groups on the bipyrrole unit of the corrole exert a powerful electron-withdrawing effect, upshifting both the oxidation and reduction potentials by roughly half a volt relative to their unsubstituted counterparts. That said, the upshift of the LUMO is somewhat higher than that of the HOMO so these complexes also exhibit a smaller HOMO-LUMO gap, as evinced in both electrochemical measurements and Q band energies (∼595 nm relative to ∼571 nm for their SCN-free counterparts). The new compounds exhibit NIR phosphorescence under ambient conditions with emission maxima around 900 nm (compared with 790 nm for simple Au triarylcorroles), phosphorescence quantum yields around 0.3%, phosphorescence lifetimes around 10 μs, and singlet oxygen sensitization with a quantum yield of around 50 ± 5% in solution, together signifying wide-ranging potential applications as triplet photosensitizers in oxygen sensing and photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
The Gouterman four-orbital model conceptualizes porphyrin UV-visible spectra as dominated by four frontier molecular orbitals-two nearly degenerate HOMOs and two exactly degenerate LUMOS under D 4h symmetry. These are well separated from all the other molecular orbitals, and normal spectra involve transitions among these MOs. Unusual spectra occur when additional orbitals appear in this energy range, typically as a consequence of the central coordinated atom. For example, metals with empty d orbitals in a suitable energy range may lead to charge transfer from porphyrin (ligand) to metal, that is, so-called LMCT transitions. Metals with filled p or d orbitals may lead to charge transfer from metal to porphyrin, MLCT transitions. These cases lead to additional peaks and/or significant redshifts in the spectra and were classified as hyperporphyrins by Gouterman. Cases in which spectra are blueshifted were classified as hypsoporphyrins; they are common for relatively electronegative late transition metal porphyrins. Many of the same principles apply to porphyrin analogues, especially corroles. In this Perspective, we focus on two newer classes of hyperporphyrins: one reflecting substituent effects in protonated or deprotonated free-base tetraphenyporphyrins and the other reflecting "noninnocent" interactions between central metal ions and corroles. Hyperporphyrin effects on spectra can be dramatic, yet they can be generated by relatively simple changes and subtle structural variations, such as acid-base reactions or the selection of a central metal ion. These concepts suggest strategies for engineering porphyrin or porphyrinoid dyes for specific applications, especially those requiring far-red or near-infrared absorption or emission.

[PMID: 35744685 PMCID: PMC9230841 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10061167] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Corroles possess key photophysical and photochemical properties to be exploited as therapeutic agents in antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). Herein, we present for the first time the antimicrobial efficiency of three corrole dimers and of the corresponding precursor against the Gram(+) bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. Additionally, to explore future clinical applications, the cytotoxicity of the most promising derivatives towards Vero cells was evaluated. The aPDT assays performed under white light irradiation (50 mW/cm2; light dose 450 J/cm2) and at a corrole concentration of 15 µM showed that some dimers were able to reduce 99.9999% of S. aureus strain (decrease of 5 log10 CFU/mL) and their photodynamic efficiency was dependent on position, type of linkage, and aggregation behavior. Under the same light conditions, the corrole precursor 1 demonstrated notable photodynamic efficiency, achieving total photoinactivation (>8.0 log10 CFU/mL reduction) after the same period of irradiation (light dose 450 J/cm2). No cytotoxicity was observed when Vero cells were exposed to corrole 1 and dimer 3 for 24 h according to ISO guidelines (ISO 10993-5) for in vitro cytotoxicity of medical devices. The results show that corrole dimers, dependent on their structures, can be considered good photosensitizers to kill Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
Two phosphorous (V) corrole complexes, [5,10,15-pentafluorophenyl corrole] phosphorous (V) (PFCorr) and [10-(4-trimethylsilylphenyl)-5,15-dimesityl-corrole] phosphorous (V) (PCorr) were synthesized and tested as nitrite-sensitive fluorophores. Fluorimetry studies on ligand sensitivity towards anions were carried out in solution, then inside polymeric membrane optodes deposited on glass, and finally by functionalized SiO2 nanoparticles deposited on a paper support. The selective fluorescence quenching was registered upon addition of an increasing amount of NO2− ions for both ligands. The influence on the PFCorr optode’s response of the lipophilic sites’ functionalization was investigated. The sensors’ suitability for nitrite assessment in natural waters at levels 10-fault lower than the WHO’s recommended maximum concentration level of 3 mg/L was demonstrated.
