	abstract = {We report the direct observation of 1D and 2D nanostructures of cobalt dipyrromethene trimer complexes adsorbed on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite surface using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). STM images showed two types of ordered structures coexisting on the surface: long 1D molecular chains isolated on the terraces, and 2D hexagonal patterns confined by a 1D chain and/or a graphite step edge. These 1D and 2D structures are attributed to {\textquoteright}edge-on{\textquoteright} and {\textquoteright}face-on{\textquoteright} complex alignments on the surface, respectively. In both configurations, substrate-mediated molecule-molecule interactions may play a significant role in stabilizing the nanostructures. (C) 2009 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {The synthesis of three octapyrrolic, 8-10, and four dodecapyrrolic, 15-18, oligomers is reported. They are linear poly(dipyrromethene)s and potential ligands as building blocks for supramolecular architectures through self-assembly. Octapyrrolic oligomers 8-10 were prepared in 90-95\% yields by condensation of 2 equiv of a tripyrrolic compound 4 with 1 equiv of diformyldipyrrolic compounds 5-7. A similar procedure, involving the condensation of 2 equiv of a pentapyrrolic starting material 13 with 1 equiv of 5-7 or 14, was found to give rise to the corresponding dodecameric systems 15-18 in 41-56\% yields.},
