- Abstract
The cover picture showsthat modifying the naturally occurring protoporphyrin IX through amide linkages and/or vinyl group functionalization, crystallization in solution, as well as on solid substrates, can be avoided. Self‐assembly plays a vital role in the construction of thermodynamically stable nanostructures at both the cellular and sub‐cellular levels with nano‐ to millimeter dimensions. These nanostructures have been developed through a “bottom‐up” strategy. Protoporphyrin IX derivatives self‐assembled into a variety of nanostructures such as nanotubes and nanospheres, the helical and vesicular morphology of which depends on the substitution and solvent used from nanometer to millimeter. The background is a rainbow view of the metal derivatives of naturally occurring protoporphyrin IX, since protoporphyrin changes its color depending on the metal inserted inside the cavity. Details are presented in the Microreview by S. V. Bhosale, S. V. Bhosale et al. on page 3939 ff.. The cover picture was elaborated by Dr. Sheshanath Bhosale and Dr. Mohammad Al Kobaisi.
