Creation of Kinetically Stabilized Porphyrin Microfilms through Synchronized Hydrogen-bonding Interactions in Microflow
Fine hydrogen-bonded networks over the micrometer scale were spontaneously constructed in microflow through the synchronized protonation of porphyrin having four carboxylic acid groups. The obtained porphyrin-based microfilms were kinetically stabilized by the hydrogen-bonded networks, and therefore were easily decomposed through synchronized deprotonation in the microflow.
