A binding study of the porphyrin phosphonates (1, 2), porphyrin-oligopeptid
e conjugates (3-5) and meso-tetrakis-(p-sulfonato-phenyl) porphyrin (7) to
saccharides and alkyl pyranosides showed strong interaction in water and DM
SO. The H-1, P-31 NMR, IR-spectroscopy and SPR technique were used for the
study of mechanisms of complexation and potential using of receptors as sen
sor part; participant of hydrogen bonds in porphyrin-saccharide complexes f
ormation was demonstrated. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserv
