Abstract
Relativistic restricted active space (RAS) second-order multireference perturbation theory (MRPT2) methods, incorporating spin-orbit (SO) coupling perturbatively via state interaction (SO-MRPT2/RASSCF), were used to reproduce the absorption spectra of parent metalloporphyrins containing the Mg2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, or FeCl2+ ions in the 12,500-40,000 cm-1 region. Particular attention was paid to the interaction between the porphyrin ring and the metal 3d electrons in states of different multiplicities (we used metal 3d and double d-shell or 3d' orbitals). For this class of compounds, the N-electron valence state perturbation theory (NEVPT2) method is superior to the complete active space perturbation theory (CASPT2) and successfully reproduces the energies of all four characteristic transitions (Q, B, N, and L) of closed-shell metalloporphyrins. Inclusion of SO coupling was found to have very little effect on excitation energies and oscillator strengths. For FeCl2+ porphyrin, we treated ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT; π,d), metal ligand field (d,d), and metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT; d,π*) transitions within the same framework. The broad and intense spectral features associated with its B (Soret) band are attributed to multiconfigurational LMCT (d,π*) bands involving strong metal-ligand orbital mixing.

Abstract
The development of coordination compounds with antineoplastic therapeutic properties is currently focused on non-covalent interactions with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Additionally, the interaction profiles of these compounds with globular plasma proteins, particularly serum albumin, warrant thorough evaluation. In this study, we report on the interactions between biomolecules and complexes featuring hydrazone-type imine ligands coordinated with vanadium. The potential to enhance the therapeutic efficiency of these compounds through mitochondrial targeting is explored. This targeting is facilitated by the derivatization of ligands with triphenylphosphonium groups. Thus, this work presents the synthesis, characterization, interactions, and cytotoxicity of dioxidovanadium(V) complexes (C1-C5) with a triphenylphosphonium moiety. These VV-species are coordinated to hydrazone-type iminic ligands derived from (3-formyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium chloride ([AH]Cl) and aromatic hydrazides ([H2L1]Cl-[H2L5]Cl). The structures of the five complexes were elucidated through single-crystal X-ray diffraction and vibrational spectroscopies, confirming the presence of dioxidovanadium(V) species in various geometries with degrees of distortion (τ = 0.03-0.50) and highlighting their zwitterionic characteristics. The molecular structural stability of C1-C5 in solution was ascertained using 1H, 19F, 31P, and 51V-nuclear magnetic resonance. Moreover, their interactions with biomolecules were evaluated using diverse spectroscopic methodologies and molecular docking, indicating moderate interactions (Kb ≈ 104 M-1) with calf thymus DNA in the minor groove and with human serum albumin, predominantly in the superficial IB subdomain. Lastly, the cytotoxic potentials of these complexes were assessed in keratinocytes of the HaCaT lineage, revealing that C1-C5 induce a reduction in metabolic activity and cell viability through apoptotic pathways.

Abstract
In this manuscript, we report the photo-inactivation evaluation of new tetra-cationic porphyrins with peripheral Pt(II) complexes ate meta N-pyridyl positions in the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) of rapidly growing mycobacterial strains (RGM). Four different metalloderivatives were synthetized and applied. aPDT experiments in the strains of Mycobacteroides abscessus subsp. Abscessus (ATCC 19977), Mycolicibacterium fortuitum (ATCC 6841), Mycobacteroides abscessus subsp. Massiliense (ATCC 48898), and Mycolicibacterium smegmatis (ATCC 700084) conducted with adequate concentration of photosensitizers (PS) under white-light conditions at 90 min (irradiance of 50 mW cm-2 and a total light dosage of 270 J cm-2) showed that the Zn(II) derivative is the most effective PS significantly reduced the concentration of viable mycobacteria. The effectiveness of the molecule as PS for PDI studies is also clear with mycobacteria, which is strongly related with the porphyrin peripheral charge and coordination platinum(II) compounds and consequently about the presence of metal center ion. This class of PS may be promising antimycobacterial aPDT agents with potential applications in medical clinical cases and bioremediation.

Abstract
The interaction between human serum albumin (HSA) and the non-charged synthetic photosensitizer 5,10,15,20-tetra(pyridine-4-yl)porphyrin (4-TPyP) was evaluated by in vitro assays under physiological conditions using spectroscopic techniques (UV-vis, circular dichroism, steady-state, time-resolved, synchronous, and 3D-fluorescence) combined with in silico calculations by molecular docking. The UV-vis and steady-state fluorescence parameters indicated a ground-state association between HSA and 4-TPyP and the absence of any dynamic fluorescence quenching was confirmed by the same average fluorescence lifetime for HSA without (4.76 ± 0.11 ns) and with 4-TPyP (4.79 ± 0.14 ns). Therefore, the Stern-Volmer quenching (KSV) constant reflects the binding affinity, indicating a moderate interaction (104 M-1) being spontaneous (ΔG°= -25.0 kJ/mol at 296 K), enthalpically (ΔH° = -9.31 ± 1.34 kJ/mol), and entropically (ΔS° = 52.9 ± 4.4 J/molK) driven. Binding causes only a very weak perturbation on the secondary structure of albumin. There is just one main binding site in HSA for 4-TPyP (n ≈ 1.0), probably into the subdomain IIA (site I), where the Trp-214 residue can be found. The microenvironment around this fluorophore seems not to be perturbed even with 4-TPyP interacting via hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces with the amino acid residues in the subdomain IIA.
