The synthesis and chiral resolution of free-base and Ni(II) complexes of a number of derivatives of meso-tetraphenylmorpholinochlorins, with and without direct β-carbon-to-o-phenyl linkages to the flanking phenyl groups, is described. The morpholinoc... Read More about Helimeric porphyrinoids: Stereostructure and chiral resolution of meso -tetraarylmorpholinochlorins.

Addressing fluorescence and liquid crystal behaviour in multi-mesogenic BODIPY materials (2011)
Journal Article
Benstead, M., Rosser, G. A., Beeby, A., Mehl, G. H., & Boyle, R. W. (2011). Addressing fluorescence and liquid crystal behaviour in multi-mesogenic BODIPY materials. New journal of chemistry = Nouveau journal de chimie, 35(7), 1410-1417. https://doi.org/10.1039/c0nj00990c

Two series of BODIPYs (4,4'-difluoro-3a, 4a-diaza-s-indacene) bearing mesogenic substituents have been synthesised and their fluorescent and self-assembly behaviour has been observed and characterised. In order to induce a strong preference for liqui... Read More about Addressing fluorescence and liquid crystal behaviour in multi-mesogenic BODIPY materials.

Nanoparticles can be targeted towards, and accumulate in, tumor tissue by the enhanced permeability and retention effect, if sequestration by the reticuloendothelial system (RES) is avoided. The application of nanoparticles in the field of drug deliv... Read More about Polyacrylamide nanoparticles as a delivery system in photodynamic therapy.
