title: Synthesis of a hetero-dinuclear metal complex in a porphyrin/phthalocyanine four-fold rotaxane.
abstract: We report synthesis of a hetero-dinuclear metal complex in a four-fold rotaxane, in which a Cu(2+)-porphyrin and a Zn(2+)-phthalocyanine are cofacially stacked. Interaction between the two metal complexes in the rotaxane was investigated by a UV-Vis absorption spectral study.
