Abstract
Unique structural and photophysical features of the photosynthetic reaction centres has been an important stimulant in the motivation for designing artificial multimolecular arrays based on tetrapyrrolic compounds in order to mimick the primary photoprocesses in vivo such as electronic excitation energy transfer (EEET), electron transport (ET) and charge separation (CS). In this report we present spectro-structural parameters and discuss the EEET and ET processes for novel supramolecular building blocks which contain more than three porphyrin-like macrocycles.
