Three of them are liquids at room temperature. All these porphyrinic salts were characterized by H-1 NMR, F-19 NMR, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and UV-visible spectroscopy. The thermal properties and conductivity values of these salt derivatives have been also measured. A specific conductivity value of up to 4 mS.cm(-1) could be obtained for a compound having the counter-anion B(C6F5)(4)(-)RT ionic liquidsA(3)B-porphyrinsA(2)B(2)-porphyrinsconductivitytetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate anionDscTgaSensitized Solar-CellsMolten-SaltsElectrolyteElectrochemistryExtractionCatalysisMediatext::journal::journal article::research article
