Introducing porphyrins into three dimensional network solids has become our focus of research over the last few months. In particular we are looking at the potential applications of specific N-confused porphyrins and whether or not they provide more stability for the network solid. We are also concerned with slow evaporating crystal growth in order to obtain characterization by X-ray crystallography. By creating several different N-confused porphyrins with a wide rang of varying polarity and solubility we can better understand growing conditions of the porphyrin layered crystal structure. We are also concentrated on stability of side chain substitution and compatibility with connecting 3 axis (x, y, and z) solid networks. Our theory is that by creating slightly ionic meso- position substituants we can increase bonding stability between these substituants and the metalloporphyrin complex.
