Preparation, electrochemical and spectral properties of N-methylated pyridylethynyl porphyrins
No full text[[abstract]]A new series of electron-deficient porphyrins were prepared by attaching one or two N-methylated 2-, 3- or 4-pyridylethynyl groups to the 10,20-meso positions of ( 5,15-biphenylporphinato) zinc(II). Electrochemical studies showed significant changes in the reduction potentials of these porphyrins, and N-methyl-2-pyridylethyne is the strongest electron-withdrawing substituent in the series. UV-visible spectra demonstrated largely red-shifted absorptions, and N-methyl-4-pyridylethyne has the greatest impact to the porphyrin absorptions. Electrochemical, UV-visible and EPR results concluded that porphyrins Zn2 and Zn6 reversibly undergo two one-electron porphyrinring reductions to their anion radicals then dianions. The first reductions of porphyrins Zn1, Zn3, Zn4 and Zn5 were irreversible one-electron transfer processes. The unstability of these reduction products was suggested to result from the eletrophilic attacks at the substituents.[[note]]SC

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
