Abstract
A naphthalene diimide acceptor 1 bearing a pyridine group linked directly (a series) or through a —CH2CH2— spacer (b series) coordinated axially to a metallotetraarylporphyrin (MP) undergoes fast photoinduced electron transfer (in the case of MP = Zn(II)TTP) while the kinetically more stable ruthenium complexes (MP = Ru(CO)TPP) have been used to illustrate the correlation between the distance of probe protons from the porphyrin plane and the change in chemical shift (Δδ) upon coordination. Changes in the emission spectra at 650 nm (λ ex= 400 nm) upon the addition of Zn(II) ions and/or 1b to TTPH2 can be interpreted in a truth table to illustrate a NAND gate.

Because of the lack of structural information by X-ray crystallography, molecular modelling (Insight II) has been used as a suitable approximation to determine the distances between hydrogen atoms to the porphyrin plane. Ru-N distances were taken from published X-ray crystal structure data, see: K. Funatsu, A. Kimura, T. Imamura, A. Ichimura, and Y. Sasaki: Inorg. Chem. 36, 1625 (1997).
