During 2019, FunNanoSurf has achieved a series of new molecular materials based on Curcuminoids (CCMoids) and porphyrins for different purposes. This way, (i) multifunctional CCMoids have been designed and attached to functionalized surfaces, functioning as sensors of boron, taking advantage of their effective anchoring groups and luminescent properties that switch upon coordination; (ii) a new family of PAH-CCMoids (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) has been attained with the aims of anchoring such materials in hybrid graphene-based nanodevices forsingle-molecule electronic transport purposes; (iii) a number of CCMoids have been used as polytopic systems coordinating to transition metals and achieving high-dimensional systems, among them, 2D CCMoid-based materials that are been exfoliated and characterized on different substrates.

In addition, the versatile chemistry of CCMoids has allowed (iv) the creation of molecular units that can be covalently attached to functionalized electrodes, as for example, graphene and CNTs. The capacity of functionalized different parts of CCMoids (v) has allowed the development of supramolecular approaches to control the deposition of such bioinspired molecules on different substrates and microparticles and to obtain new bio(inspired) responsive supramolecular polymers. This is extended toward (vi) the creation of biommetic surfaces and theranostic materials. Regarding the porphyrins, the incorporation of chiral and achiral Zn-porphyrins to block copolymers via axial metal coordination for supramolecular hybrid materials has been developed.
