Rationalizing the Unexpected Inefficiencies of 3D Porphyrin‐MOFs as Singlet Oxygen Photosensitizers Against Botrytis cinerea

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Unexpected results show that the singlet‐oxygen based antifungal activity of porphyrin‐based Metal‐Organic Frameworks is far below expectations while the standalone ligand is more efficient. We attribute these behaviours to inefficient exciton migration and gas diffusion leading to low singlet oxgyen concentrations at and beyond the MOF‐gas interface ...
