In the gas phase, the broad selectivity of porphyrins is largely dependant on molecular features, such as the metal ion complexed at the core of the aromatic ring and the peripheral substituents. Although these features have been largely exploited to design gas sensor arrays, so far, little attention has been devoted to modify the sensing properties of these macrocycles by variation of the molecular aromatic ring. In this paper, the gas sensing properties of a porphyrin analog, the corrole, are studied in comparison with those of the parent porphyrin. Results show that changes in the aromatic ring have important consequences on the sensitivity and selectivity of the sensors and that porphyrins and corroles can positively cooperate to enhance the performance of sensor arrays.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s150408121","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,8]],"date-time":"2015-04-08T11:23:46Z","timestamp":1428492226000},"page":"8121-8130","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Corroles-Porphyrins: A Teamwork for Gas Sensor Arrays"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Rosamaria","family":"Capuano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic Engineering, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Via Politecnico 1,00133 Roma, Italy"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Pomarico","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemical Science and Technology, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Via della Ricerca Scientifica, 00133 Roma, Italy"}]},{"given":"Roberto","family":"Paolesse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemical Science and Technology, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Via della Ricerca Scientifica, 00133 Roma, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0543-4348","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Corrado","family":"Di Natale","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic Engineering, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Via Politecnico 1,00133 Roma, Italy"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Editor, K., Kadish, K., Smith, R., and Guilard, A.
