Front Cover: A Family of Porphyrin Nanotubes Assembled from Five Structural Building Blocks (Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 2/2026)
Abstract
The Front Cover shows a family photo gallery illustrating the components of a new class of porous porphyrin nanotubes (PNTs). A series of nanotubes incorporating a range of dicationic metal centres and carboxylate ligands has been synthesised. All nanotubes within the family assemble as isostructural crystals with an approximately hexagonal cross-section, offering the scope for structural tailoring to meet desired functional requirements. More information can be found in the Research Article by J. M. White and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/ejic.202500493).
