On the Significance of the Anchoring Group in the Design of Antenna Materials Based on Phthalocyanine Stopcocks and Zeolite L. Chemistry A European J 2011;17:1855–62. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201002210.0947-653910.1002/chem.201002210https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/100085The synthesis of stopcocks based on zinc phthalocyanine for selective adsorption at the channel entrances of zeolite L is reported. The introduction of either an inert SiMe3 moiety, an imidazolium cation or a reactive isothiocyanate (NCS) group allows attachment to the channel entrances of zeolite L through van der Waals interactions, electrostatic interactions, or covalent binding, respectively. Stopcocks that rely on van-der-Waals-driven adsorption require careful selection of the solvent used for the deposition onto the zeolite surface to avoid a nonspecific distribution of the molecules. Regarding the design of photonic antenna systems, a stopcock with a cationic tail was found to be the most convenient, based on the observation that efficient energy transfer from molecules located in the zeolite nanochannels is more readily obtained than in the other cases.engjournal article1521-3765https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201002210https://chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/chem.201002210restricted accessEnergy transferHost-guest systemsNanochannelsPhthalocyaninesSupramolecular chemistryZeolitesQuímica23 Química
