O acoplamento dessa técnica à espectrometria de massas (IM-MS) resulta em uma ferramenta extremamente versátil, pois adiciona uma nova dimensão aos dados de MS com informação sobre a estrutura tridimensional das espécies. Assim, a IM-MS tem sido muito utilizada para o estudo conformacional de proteínas, separação de isômeros e análise de misturas complexas. Neste trabalho, investigamos novas aplicações da IMMS, focando na separação de isômeros. Na primeira parte, mostramos que a IM-MS é capaz de separar isômeros posicionais de piridil porfirina mono ou multi substituída com [Ru(bpy)2Cl]+. Os isômeros substituídos em meta mostraram ser mais compactos do que os substituídos em para. Entretanto, os isômeros di-substituídos em cis e trans possuem seção de choque muito parecida e não puderam ser separados. Na segunda parte, mostramos a separação e caracterização de protômeros (espécies protonadas ou desprotonadas em sítios distintos). Apesar da protonação (ou desprotonação) em sítios diferentes não alterar significativamente a seção de choque da espécie, ela pode resultar em íons com distribuição de cargas contrastantes, o que leva a formação de heterodímeros entre os íons e as moléculas do gás (CO2) com forças e tempo de vidas contrastantes, assim assegurando a resolução desses protômeros por IM-MS. Na terceira parte do trabalho, investigamos o potencial da técnica para o detalhamento composicional e estrutural de compostos presentes em petróleo através da análise de cortes de destilação de alto ponto de ebulição / Abstract: Ion mobility mass spectrometry separates ions with different size or shape (collision cross section) in the gas phase according to the time they take to travel through a cell filled with gas under the influence of a low electric field. The coupling of this technique to mass spectrometry (IM-MS) results in an extremely versatile tool, since it adds a new dimension to MS data with information about the species¿ threedimensional structure. Therefore, IM-MS has been extensively used for protein conformation studies, isomer separations and analysis of complex mixtures. In this work, we investigate new applications of IM-MS, focusing on isomer separation. In the first part, we show that IM-MS is able to separate positional isomers of pyridilporhyrins mono or multi-substituted wih [Ru(bpy)2Cl]+. The meta substituted isomers were shown to be more compact than the para substituted isomers. On the other hand, cis and trans di-substituted isomers display very similar collision cross sections and could not be separated. In the second part of this work, we show the separation and characterization of protomers (species protonated or deprotonated in different sites). Although protonation (or deprotonation) in different sites does not change significatly the species collision cross section, it may result in ions with contrasting charge distribution, which leads to the formation of heterodimers between ions and gas molecules (CO2) with contrasting strengths and life times, therefore allowing the resolution of these protomers by IM-MS. In the third part of this work, we investigate the potencial of this technique for the compositional and structural detailing of compounds present in crude oil by the analysis of high boiling point distillation cuts / Doutorado / Quimica Analitica / Doutora em Ciências

Au cours de cette thèse, nous avons synthétisé et caractérisé de nouveaux composés en utilisant le macrocycle porphyrine en tant que brique moléculaire. L’objectif, après la synthèse, était d’étudier les propriétés photophysiques de ces nouvelles molécules. Plus précisément, nous avons considérés trois groupes de dendrimères fluorènyles-porphyrines et deux oligomères avec des structures conjuguées. Les corrélations structures et propriétés optiques ont été discutées en détail, ainsi que le transfert d’énergie du dendron conjugué donneur. Dans le premier chapitre, nous avons décrit la chimie des porphyrines en considérant surtout trois aspects: (i) structure, (ii) propriétés optiques et (iii) méthode synthétique. Nous avons également reporté les porphyrines préalablement étudiées dans notre groupe de recherche et proposé de nouveaux modèles lors de cette thèse. Dans le deuxième chapitre, nous avons étudié l’influence de la position de substitution du phényle sur le coeur central qui est la porphyrine TPP. Deux groupes de nouveaux dendrimères ont été synthétisés avec différentes positions de substitution du phényle de la TPP: série parasubstituée TPP1, TPP2 et TPP3, et série méta-substituée TPP4, TPP5 et TPP6. Ces dendrimères ont tous des dendrons conjugués avec des ponts phényl-alcynes et des groupements fluorènyles terminaux. Dans le troisième chapitre, pour étudier l’influence des antennes périphériques, une série de dendrimères de porphyrine à base de TFP avec différentes positions de fluorènyles dans les dendrons conjugués (fluorényle central, fluorényle pontant et fluorényle terminal): TFP1, TFP2 et TFP3 a été synthétisée. Le fluorényle central influence principalement l’émission et le rendement quantique, alors que le fluorényle ponté et le fluorényle terminal ont un plutôt un effet sur l’absorption et l’émission du dendron en raison du transfert d’énergie prenant effet. Pour le plus gros dendrimère TFP3, lors de l’excitation du dendron, une émission résiduelle lors du processus de transfert est observée due à une trop grande distance entre ce chromophore et le coeur de la porphyrine. Dans le quatrième chapitre, afin d’étudier l’influence des connexions dans le dendron, deux nouveaux dendrimères de porphyrine incorporant des ponts vinyles et alcynyles, TPP-D et TFP-D, ont été synthétisés et comparés aux analogues avec des ponts alcynes TPP-T et TFP-T. Ces ponts avec des doubles liaisons influencent dans une certaine mesure les propriétés optiques des dendrimères de porphyrine en fonction des positions occupées. Dans le dernier chapitre, deux oligomères (un dimère linéaire et en un trimère en étoile), ont été synthétisés à partir du même monomère de porphyrine avec TFP comme groupement terminaux. / During this thesis, we have worked on the synthesis and characterization of new compounds using the porphyrin macrocycle as a starting material. The aim, after synthesis, was to study the photophysical properties of these new molecules. More precisely, we have synthesized and characterized three groups of fluorenyl-porphyrin dendrimers and two oligomers in conjugated structures. Their correlation on optical property-structure have been discussed in detail, as well as the energy transfer processes from the conjugated dendron donor to porphyrin acceptor. In the first chapter, we introduce the general background of the porphyrin chemistry based on three aspects: (i) structure, (ii) optical properties and (iii) synthetic methods. We further review prior porphyrin studies done in our group and propose new molecular designs based on these results. In the second chapter, we study the influence of substitution position and nature of the antennae on the central core. Two groups of new TPP-cored porphyrin dendrimers were synthesized according to different substituted positions on the peripheral phenyl rings: para-substituted series TPP1, TPP2 and TPP3, and meta-substituted ones TPP4, TPP5 and TPP6. All have conjugated dendrons with bridged phenyl-alkynyl and are terminated by fluorenyl groups. In the third chapter, we study the influence of positions of light absorbers. To this aim, a series of TFP-cored porphyrin dendrimers presenting fluorenyls in conjugated dendrons on different positions is reported (core fluorenyl, bridging fluorenyl and terminal fluorenyl): TFP1, TFP2 and TFP3. The core fluorenyl mainly influences emission peaks and quantum yield, while the bridging fluorenyl and terminal fluorenyl have a large effect on the dendron absorption and on the energy transfer efficiency. Thus, for the largest dendrimer TFP3, dendron emission is not totally quenched by long distance energy transfer process when exciting the peripheral dendrons. In the fourth chapter, we study the influence of linkages in the Dendron. Thus, two new porphyrin dendrimers with bridged vinyl, TPP-D and TFP-D, were synthesized and compared to analogues with alkynyl bridged TPP-T and TFP-T. Vinyl and alkynyl bridges are shown to influence the optical properties of the porphyrin dendrimers to a certain extent depending on the substituted positions. Finally, in the last chapter, two oligomers with n-butyl substituted TFP as terminal group, a linear dimer and a star – shaped trimer, were synthesized from the same porphyrin monomer.

O melhor entendimento sobre as características de auto-organização e a habilidade de controlá-las em moléculas tem gerado formas mais baratas e rápidas de usar a abordagem bottom-up em nanociência. Dentre os diversos estudos feitos, podemos citar o desenvolvimento de sensores de gás que utilizam do sinal magnético de uma camada auto-organizada de moléculas e da ligação de pequenas moléculas como CO ou NO que promovem a emergência de magnetismo na amostra. Outro aspecto interessante do estudo de sistemas moleculares se encontra na similariedade das moléculas que podem ser utilizadas com moléculas encontradas nos processos recorrentes na natureza, por exemplo, as clorofilas e hemoglobinas. Isto significa que ao estudar moléculas simples é possível mimetizar um comportamento parecido com o das moléculas citadas. Neste sentido, em nosso trabalho estudamos dois tipos de moléculas ¿ Porfirinas e Ftalocianinas ¿ e as propriedades estruturais quando depositadas em diferentes substratos metálicos. As porfirinas foram analisadas em uma superfície de baixo índice de Miller, Cu(111), e tiveram seu comportamento comparado com o análogo em superfícies vicinais, Au(332) e Au(788). As porfirinas formam estruturas em 1D quando depositadas em pequenas quantidades, dependendo da natureza do substrato e a largura de seu terraço. Em maiores coberturas, as porfirinas formam diferentes estruturas de empacotamento fechado em 2D, de simetrias quadrada e paralelogrâmica. Eletronicamente observou-se a modificação do entorno químico do níquel quando a molécula de NiTPP é adsorvida no Cu(111). As ftalocianinas foram depositadas em diferentes substratos visando a produção de co-organização de dois tipos de moléculas num padrão tabuleiro de xadrez. Após a obtenção do padrão de tabuleiro de xadrez, nós realizamos experimentos para elucidar os mecanismos que possibilitam formar tais estruturas. Com o intuito de estudar auto-organização molecular, nós empregamos técnicas sensíveis a superfícies como a Microscopia de Tunelamento, Espectroscopia de Tunelamento e Espectroscopia de Fotoemissão por Raios-X. Tais técnicas possibilitam a obtenção das propriedades estruturais e eletrônicas das nanoestruturas formadas / Abstract: The study of molecular systems on top of metal substrates has gathered increased atten-tion of the scientific community. Better understanding over different self-assembly haracteristics and the ability to control them in molecules has led to the development of quicker and cheaper routes of the use of the bottom-up approach in nanoscience. Among the diverse studies, we can cite the development of gas sensors that use the mag-netic signal of a self-assembled layer of molecules and the eventual binding of small molecules such as CO or NO leading to the emergence of magnetism on the sample. Another interesting aspect of the study of molecular systems is the similarity of molecules commonly used with molecules found in nature processes, e.g. chlorophylls and hemeglobins. This means that by studying simple molecules one can try to mimic the natural processes of those natural molecules. In this sense, in our work we have studied two classes of molecules ¿ Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines ¿ and their structural properties when deposited on different metal substrates. The porphyrins were analyzed on a low-index miller surface, Cu(111) and compared to their be-havior when deposited on vicinal substrates, Au(332) and Au(788). The porphyrins were ob-served to form 1D structures when deposited in small quantities depending on the nature of the substrate and its terrace width. At higher coverages, porphyrins formed different close-packed 2D structures, with square and parallelogram symmetry. Electronically was observed the modifica-tion of the chemical environment of nickel when NiTPP is adsorbed on Cu(111). The phthalo-cyanines were deposited on different substrates as well, towards the goal of producing co-assembling of two types of molecules as chessboard arrays. After the chessboard array was obtained, we gathered knowledge about the mechanisms that formed such structures. Towards the goal of studying molecular self-assembly, we have employed proper surface sensitive techniques such as Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. Such techniques allowed us to obtain the structural and electronic properties of the nanostructures formed / Mestrado / Física / Mestre em Física

This thesis includes NMR studies of free base meso-tetra(otolyl) porphyrin (TTP) and meso -tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and their dications protonated by trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). The chemical shift changes of the -NH resonance are very unusual and have never been reported. At the beginning of the titration, the N-H resonances broaden considerably but do not shift; when the ratio of [TFA]/[TTP] or [TFA]/[TPPf are over 2, the N-H resonances shift markedly to lower field by as much as 1.6 ppm. At acid levels well above the equivalence point, the NH resonances moves back to higher field. Moreover upon protonation the NH line of TTP becomes a complex multiplet which changes as a function of [TFA]/[TTP]. The NH line of TPP remains a singlet at all acid levels. We also report here a way of isolating atropisomers of mesotetra( o -tolyl)porphyrin through HPLC by using an analytical C-18 bond pack reverse phase column eluted by a 1 %THF + 99%Me0H solvent combination. A preliminary study by HPLC was also carried out on ZnTTP(II) with aliquots of 2,6-dimethylpyridine, and the retention time of the separation decreased markedly, but this study needs to be repeated and improved. TTP and TPP dications at two different acid levels were studied by VT-NMR, and the downfield shift of -NH resonance of TTP dications was more pronounced at higher temperatures than those of TPP dications.

La conception et le développement de biocapteurs pour la détection directe de biomarqueurs dans un échantillon de fluide biologique constituent un véritable défi dans la recherche pour leur application dans le système de point de soins en diagnostic. Mon projet est axé sur l'élaboration d'une nouvelle plateforme de décomposition biologique composée de graphène qui présente une surface électroactive et spécifique élevée permettant de greffer de nombreux biomolécules avec des métalloporphyrines en tant que nouveau marqueur redox pour suivre le processus de reconnaissance biologique obtenu dans le cas d'un capteur d'ADN. Le concept sera de démontrer que les métalloporphyrines où le potentiel d'oxydo-réduction pourrait être contrôlé par la nature des ions métalliques pourraient être appliquées dans une plate-forme de biocapteurs électrochimique multidétection. L'association de la métalloporphyrine avec le graphène offrira de nombreux avantages, comme la promotion de la réaction de transfert d'électrons et ayant une grande surface pour l'immobilisation des protéines. La détection de la cible présente sera réalisée suite à l'activité redox des métalloporphyrines greffées à la surface. Nous avons déjà synthétisé différentes métalloporphyrines modifiées et caractérisées par des techniques habituelles de spectrométrie telles que la RMN, les UV et la MS. Le biocapteur d'ADN a été construit par le composite de graphène et métalloporphyrine et sonde d'ADN comme biorécepteur suivant l'approche d'attachement covalent et l'optimisation de la construction de biocapteur pour améliorer la stabilité et la reproductibilité. Et nous avons déjà fait une détection de l'ADN cible par diverses méthodes électrochimiques, y compris la voltamétrie cyclique, la voltampérométrie à onde carrée et la spectroscopie d'impédance. Cette stratégie a été réalisée d'abord avec la porphyrine Mn insérée puis généralisée à divers complexes métalliques pour une approche multidétection. Parallèlement, les nanomatériaux hybrides combinant les caractéristiques du graphène (haute conductivité et grande surface spécifique) et des porphyrines (propriétés physiques et chimiques et capacité de transfert d'électrons), tels que la tétraphénylporphyrine portant un et quatre groupes carboxyliques nommés H₂TPP-nCP (n = 1, 4) et la tétraphénylporphyrine incorporant du manganèse (III) (MnTPP-1CP) ont été synthétisés avec succès. L'interaction entre H₂TPP-nCP (n = 1, 4) et l'oxyde de graphène chimiquement réduit (CRGO) a été étudiée dans mon travail de thèse. Pour étudier les propriétés caractéristiques des nanomatériaux préparés, la microscopie électronique à balayage (MEB), la microscopie à force atomique (AFM), les spectres UV-visible, les spectres infrarouges à transformée de Fourier (FT-IR) et les spectres de photoélectrons X. Afin d'éliminer l'absorption non spécifique, la modification de l'électrode par le PEA a également été appliquée et obtenir une excellente application pour la détection de la cible d'ADN. / The design and development of biosensors for direct detection of biomarkers in biological fluid sample is real challenge in research for their application in point of care system in diagnostic. My project is focus on the elaboration of a new platform for biological detaction composed of graphene which exhibits a high electroactive and specific surface suitable for grafting numerous biomoleculer with metalloporphyrins as a novel redox marker for following biological recognition process obtained in the case of DNA sensor. The concept will be to demonstrate that the metaloporphyrines where there redox potential could be controlled by the nature of metal ions could be applied in multidetection electrochemical biosensor platform. The association of metalloporphyrin with graphene will offer numerous advantages, as promoting electron transfer reaction and having a large surface for protein immobilization. The detection of target present will be performed following redox activity of the metalloporphyrins grafted on the surface. We have already synthesized various modified metalloporphyrins and characterizatized by usual spectrometry techniques such as NMR, UV and MS. The DNA biosensor has been constructed by the composite of graphene and metalloporphyrin and DNA probe as bioreceptor following covalent attachment approach and optimization of the biosensor construction for improving stability and reproducibility. And we have already done some detection of DNA Target by various electrochemical methods including cyclic voltammetry, square wave voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy. This strategy was performed firstly with on Mn inserted porphyrin and then generalized to various metal complex for multidetection approach. Meanwhile, the hybrid nanomaterials which combined the features of both graphene (high conductivity and large specific surface area) and porphyrins (physical and chemical properties and electron transfer ability), such as tetraphenylporphyrin bearing one and four carboxylic group named H₂TPP-nCP(n=1, 4) and tetraphenylporphyrin incorporating manganese (III) (MnTPP-1CP) were successfully synthesized. The interaction modes between H₂TPP-nCP(n=1, 4) and chemically reduced graphene oxide (CRGO) was studied in my thesis work. To investigate the characteristic properties of as-prepared nanomaterials, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), UV-visible spectra, Fourier Transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS). In order to eliminate the non-specific absorption, the modification of the electrode by monolayer PEA was also applied and obtain excellent application for the detection of DNA target.

The strength and success of the hydrogen economy relies heavily on the storage of hydrogen. Storage systems in which hydrogen is sequestered in a solid material have been shown to be advantageous over storage of hydrogen as a liquid or compressed gas. Many different types of materials have been investigated, yet the desired capacity and uptake/release characteristics required for implementation have not been reached. In this work, porphyrin aggregates were investigated as a new type of material for hydrogen storage. The building blocks of the aggregates are porphyrin molecules that are planar and can assume a face to face arrangement that is also known as H-aggregation. The H-aggregates were formed in solution, upon mixing of aqueous solutions of two different porphyrins, one carrying positively charged and the other one carrying negatively charged functional groups. The cationic porphyrin used was meso-tetra(4- N,N,N-trimethylanilinium) porphine (TAP) and it was combined with four different anionic porphyrins, meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine (TPPS), meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl) porphine (TCPP), Cu(II) meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl) porphine, and Fe(III) meso-tetra(4- carboxyphenyl) porphine. The force of attraction that held two oppositely charged porphyrin molecules together was electrostatic attraction between the peripheral groups. Solid state aggregates were successfully isolated either by solvent evaporation or by centrifuging and freeze drying. TCPP-TAP and Cu(II)TCPP-TAP aggregates were shown to interact with hydrogen starting from 150 °C up to 250 °C. The uptake capacity was about 1 weight %. Although this value is very low, this is the first observation of porphyrin aggregates absorbing hydrogen. This opened the way for further research to improve hydrogen absorption properties of these iv materials, as well as other materials based on this model. Two other materials that are also based on planar building blocks were selected to serve as a comparison to the porphyrin aggregates. The first of those materials was metal intercalated graphite compounds. In such compounds, a metal atom is placed between the layers of graphene that make up the graphite. Lithium, calcium and lanthanum were selected in this study. Theoretical hydrogen capacity was calculated for each material based on the hydriding of the metal atoms only. The fraction of that theoretical hydrogen capacity actually displayed by each material increased from La to Ca to Li containing graphite. The weight % hydrogen observed for these materials varied between 0.60 and 2.0 %. The other material tested for comparison was KxMnO2, a layered structure of MnO2 that contained the K atoms in between oxygen layers. The hydrogen capacity of the KxMnO2 samples was similar to the other materials tested in the study, slightly above 1 weight %. This work has shown that porphyrin aggregates, carbon based and manganese dioxide based materials are excellent model materials for hydrogen storage. All three materials absorb hydrogen. Porphyrin aggregates have the potential to exhibit adjustable hydrogen uptake and release temperatures owing to their structure that could interact with an external electric or magnetic field. In the layered materials, it is possible to alter interlayer spacing and the particular intercalates to potentially produce a material with an exceptionally large hydrogen capacity. As a result, these materials can have significant impact on the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier.
