Prepared Chiral Nanorods of a Cobalt(II) Porphyrin Dimer and Studied Changes of UV−Vis and CD Spectra with Aggregate Morphologies under Different Temperatures

Abstract

Novel porphyrin dimer ligand and cobalt complexes by directly bridging with l-glutamic acid have been prepared and characterized. The intensities of circular dichroism and UV-vis spectra that change the aggregate morphologies of the porphyrin dimer under different temperatures have been investigated.
