Abstract
We present gas-phase structures of dimers of MnIII and FeIII meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin multianions with various amounts of sodium and hydrogen counterions. The structural assignments are achieved by combining mass spectrometry, ion mobility measurements, quantum chemical calculations, and trajectory method collision cross section calculations. For a common charge state, we observe significant topological variations in the dimer structures of [(MTPPS)2+nX](6-n)- (M=MnIII, FeIII; X=H, Na; n = 1-3) induced by replacing hydrogen counterions by sodium. For sodium, the dimer structures are much more compact, a finding that can be rationalized by the stronger interactions of the sodium cations with the anionic sulfonic acid groups of the porphyrins as compared to hydrogen.

Abstract
We have combined ion mobility mass spectrometry with quantum chemical calculations to investigate the gas-phase structures of multiply negatively charged oligomers of meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)metalloporphyrins comprising the divalent metal centers ZnII, CuII, and PdII. Sets of candidate structures were obtained by geometry optimizations based on calculations at both the semiempirical PM7 and density functional theory (DFT) levels. The corresponding theoretical cross sections were calculated with the projection approximation and also with the trajectory method. By comparing these collision cross sections with the respective experimental values we were able to assign oligomer structures up to the tetramer. In most cases the cross sections of the lowest energy isomers predicted by theory were found to agree with the measurements to within the experimental uncertainty (2%). Specifically, we find that for a given oligomer size the structures are independent of the metal center but depend strongly on the charge state. Oligomers in low charge states with a correspondingly larger number of sodium counterions tend to form stacked, cofacial structures reminiscent of H-aggregate motifs observed in solution. By contrast, in higher charge states, the stack opens to form coplanar structures.

Abstract
We present structures and photoelectron spectra of Mn(III) and Cu(II) meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS) multianions, as well as of homomolecular dimers and trimers thereof. The structural assignments are based on a combination of mass spectrometry, ion mobility measurements, and semiempirical as well as density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Depending on the type of central metal atom, two completely different dimer structural motifs are found. With a central Mn(III), the monomeric units are connected via sulfonic-acid-manganese bonds resulting in a tilted stack arrangement of porphyrin rings. With Cu(II) as the central atom, the sulfonic acid groups preferentially bind to the sodium counterions, resulting in a flat dimer structure with coplanar porphyrins. Photoelectron spectra were recorded for monomers, dimers, and trimers, each in a number of different negative charge states as determined by protonation degree (+nH). In some cases, e.g., [Cu(II)TPPS](4-), [(Mn(III)TPPS)2 + H](5-), and [(Mn(III)TPPS)3 + 3H](6-), we observe electron detachment energies close to zero, or even slightly negative. In all cases, we find a large repulsive Coulomb barrier. The observed trends in detachment energies can be interpreted in terms of a simple electrostatic model.

Abstract
Aggregation of Fe(III)-tetra-(4-sulfonatophenyl)-porphyrin (Fe(III)TPPS) was studied in the presence of block copolymers, poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PEG-b-P4VP), poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methylacrylate) (PEG-b-PDMAEMA), and poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(β-cyclodextrin) (PEG-b-PCD). The interaction between the iron porphyrin and the blocks, P4VP, PDMAEMA, and PCD, led to the formation of copolymers/Fe(III)TPPS complex micelles with a PEG shell and determined the species of Fe(III)TPPS. The electrostatic interaction of protonated P4VP and PDMAEMA with Fe(III)TPPS remarkably decreased the apparent pKd of Fe(III)TPPS and led to a micellar μ-oxo dimer of the iron porphyrin. At pH above the pKa of P4VP, Fe(III)TPPS was kept inside the hydrophobic P4VP core and formed an encapsulated μ-oxo dimer. However, when above the pKa of PDMAEMA, Fe(III)TPPS escaped from the hydrophobic PDMAEMA core, existing as a free μ-oxo dimer. PCD caused the monomer of the porphyrin because of the inclusion complexation between the β-cyclodextrin residues and Fe(III)TPPS. The two micellar monomer species Fe(III)TPPS(H2O)2 and Fe(III)TPPS(OH) were obtained with an equilibrium pKa ~ 6.4.

Abstract
Optical self-defocusing, characterized by the non-linear refractive index n2, was investigated by the Z-scan technique in water solutions of two porphyrins (PPhs), negatively charged meso-tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin ( TPPS 4) and positively charged meso-tetrakis(4-N-methyl-pyridiniumyl)porphyrin ( TMPyP ), in their free base forms and as Fe (III) and Mn (III) complexes. Significant n2 values were observed only for the TMPyP metal complexes, while for the other porphyrins the n2 values were negligible. The effect is explained by the reorientation of the porphyrin molecule due to interaction of its permanent dipole moment perpendicular to the molecular ring plane with the electromagnetic field of the exciting light pulse. The permanent dipole moment is due to the shift of the metal atom out of the molecular plane. The electrostatic interaction between the metal atom and charged substituents increases (repulsion) or decreases (attraction) the shift of the metal atom and consequently affects the dipole moment value. Ligand binding to the metal atoms also increases the out-of-plane metal shift and hence the dipole moment and n2 value. pH changes were shown to modify the Fe (III)-ligand structure, thus changing n2. The experimental data correlate well with the metal shift and dipole moment values calculated for simplified PPh structures by the ZINDO method.

Abstract
The equilibrium of meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridiniumyl)porphyrin (TMPyP) in aqueous solution in the presence of surfactants was studied by optical spectroscopic techniques and SAXS (small angle X-ray scattering). Anionic SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate), zwitterionic HPS (N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate) and nonionic TRITON X-100 (t-octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol), surfactants were used. TMPyP is characterized by a protonation equilibrium with a pKa around 1.0, associated with the diacid-free base transition, and a second pKa around 12.0 related with the transition between the free base and the monoanion form. Three independent species were observed for TMPyP at pH 6.0 as a function of SDS concentration: free TMPyP, TMPyP-SDS aggregates and porphyrin monomer bound to micelles. For HPS and TRITON X-100, the equilibrium of TMPyP as a function of pH is quite similar to that obtained in pure aqueous solution: no aggregation was observed, suggesting that electrostatic contribution is the major factor in the interaction between TMPyP and surfactants. SAXS data analysis demonstrated a prolate ellipsoidal shape for SDS micelles; no significant changes in shape and size were observed for SDS-TMPyP co-micelles. Moreover, the ionization coefficient, α, decreases with the increase of the porphyrin concentration, suggesting the "screening" of the anionic charge of SDS by the cationic porphyrin. These results are consistent with optical absorption, fluorescence and RLS (resonance light scattering) spectroscopies data, allowing to conclude that neutral surfactants present a smaller interaction with the cationic porphyrin as compared with an ionic surfactant. Therefore, the interaction of TMPyP with the ionic and nonionic surfactants is predominantly due to the electrostatic contribution.

Abstract
Interactions of cationic FeTMPyP with ionic and nonionic micelles have been studied by optical absorption, resonance light scattering (RLS) and 1 H NMR spectroscopies. The equilibrium behavior of FeTMPyP as a function of pH is described by several species in aqueous solution. The presence of phosphate anions leads to the existence of additional species in the acid p H region, probably due to the coordination of phosphates to the iron. FeTMPyP solution as a function of pH in the presence of anionic SDS showed a simplified equilibrium in acidic pH region, favoring the transition to the dimeric species. Titration of FeTMPyP as a function of SDS surfactant concentration showed the presence of three different porphyrin species: free metalloporphyrin monomers (or dimers depending on pH), metalloporphyrin monomers (or dimers) bound to the micelles, and nonmicellar metalloporphyrin/surfactant aggregates. In the case of zwitterionic LPC and HPS, and nonionic TRITON X-100 the nonmicellar metalloporphyrin/surfactant aggregates were not observed. Binding constants were calculated from optical absorption data and have values of 2 × 103 M −1 for SDS being much smaller for HPS (58 M −1), LPC and TRITON X-100. Comparison with our previous data for anionic FeTPPS 4 shows that both the electrostatic factor and hydrophobic forces are relevant in the porphyrin-surfactant interaction: for FeTPPS 4 binding constants to cationic CTAC and zwitterionic HPS are of the same order of magnitude, 1-3 × 104 M −1; for FeTMPyP the delocalization of the positive charges from the periphery substituents into the macrocycle ring leads to reduction of both electrostatic attraction to the micelle as well as hydrophobic character of the porphyrin ring, leading to a 10-fold reduction of binding to the micelles of opposite charge to the porphyrin. NMR data indicated that FeTMPyP is bound to the micelles as an equilibrium of two forms of monomer at pH 2.0, and at pH 9.0 the bound aggregated form (possibly dimers) is observed predominantly with some amount of a monomeric form.

Abstract
The Mn oxidation state of two water soluble Mn porphyrins, MnTMPyP and MnTPPS 4, was studied as a function of the aqua or hydroxo ligands of the Mn atom. In NaOH solutions, long-lived O = Mn(IV) species were detected in the presence of O 2. Conversely, the dihydroxo Mn(III) porphyrin reduces spontaneously to the Mn(II) species in the absence of O 2. In alkaline solutions, these Mn porphyrins were able to electrocatalyze the 4-electron reduction of O 2 to H 2 O on a vitreous carbon electrode.

Abstract
The mechanism of inhibition of insulin-based amyloid gel formation by metal derivatives of tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin has been investigated. Time-course UV/vis measurements in conjunction with atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to study the correlation between observed kinetics and amyloid structure for various concentration ranges of added metalloporphyrins. Observed structures include fibrils as well as circular, ring-like structures formed as a result of the interaction of insulin with porphyrin. In addition, binding studies demonstrate that the effectiveness of inhibition of the various metalloporphyrins is directly related to the strength of binding to insulin. It is suggested that both the electron distribution in the porphyrin core and the tendency to form porphyrin dimers affect both the structure of amyloid formed and the kinetic profile of the reaction.

Abstract
The present work is focussed on the principles of photodynamic therapy (PDT), emphasizing the photochemical mechanisms of reactive oxygen species formation and the consequent biochemical processes generated by the action of reactive oxygen species on various biological macromolecules and organelles. This paper also presents some of the most used photosensitizers, including Photofrin, and the new prototypes of photosensitizers, analysing their physicochemical and spectroscopic properties. At this point, the review discusses the therapeutic window of absorption of specific wavelengths involving first- and second-generation photosensitizers, as well as the principal light sources used in PDT. Additionally, the aggregation process, which consists in a phenomenon common to several photosensitizers, is studied. J-aggregates and H-aggregates are discussed, along with their spectroscopic effects. Most photosensitizers have a significant hydrophobic character; thus, the study of the types of aggregation in aqueous solvent is very relevant. Important aspects of the coordination chemistry of metalloporphyrins and metallophthalocyanines used as photosensitizers are also discussed. The state-of-the-art in PDT is evaluated, discussing recent articles in this area. Furthermore, macrocyclic photosensitizers, such as porphyrins and phthalocyanines, are specifically described. The present review is an important contribution, because PDT is one of the most auspicious advances in the therapy against cancer and other non-malignant diseases.

Abstract
The interaction of a cationic water-soluble porphyrin, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis [4-(3-pyridiniumpropoxy)phenyl]porphyrin tetrakisbromide (TPPOC3Py), with anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), in aqueous solution has been studied by means of UV-vis, (1)H NMR, fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) spectra and dynamic laser light scattering (DLLS), and it reveals that TPPOC3Py forms porphyrin-surfactant complexes (aggregates), including ordered structures J- and H-aggregates, induced by association with surfactant monomers below the SDS critical micelle concentration (cmc), and forms micellized monomer upon the cmc, respectively. The position of TPPOC3Py in the micelle is determined, which is not in the micelle core instead of intercalated among the SDS chains, most likely with the pyridinium group extending into the polar headgroup region of the micelle.

Cyclic tetrapyrroles are among the most potent compounds with activity against transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs; or prion diseases). Here the effects of differential sulfonation and metal binding to cyclic tetrapyrroles were investigated. Their potencies in inhibiting disease-associated protease-resistant prion protein were compared in several types of TSE-infected cell cultures. In addition, prophylactic antiscrapie activities were determined in scrapie-infected mice. The activity of phthalocyanine was relatively insensitive to the number of peripheral sulfonate groups but varied with the type of metal bound at the center of the molecule. The tendency of the various phthalocyanine sulfonates to oligomerize (i.e., stack) correlated with anti-TSE activity. Notably, aluminum(III) phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate was both the poorest anti-TSE compound and the least prone to oligomerization in aqueous media. Similar comparisons of iron- and manganese-bound porphyrin sulfonates confirmed that stacking ability correlates with anti-TSE activity among cyclic tetrapyrroles.

Abstract
The KM+ lectin exhibits a novel and unusual circular dichroism (CD) spectrum that could be explained by a high proline content that would be inducing deformation of the beta-structure and/or unusual turns. KM+ was shown to be a very rigid lectin, which was very stable under a broad variety of conditions (urea, guanidine, hydrolysis, pH, etc.). Only incubation for 60 min at 333-338 K and extreme basic pH were able to induce conformational changes which could be observed by CD and fluorescence measurements. Data from CD are typical for protein denaturing associated with changes in the overall secondary structure. Data from high-performance size exclusion chromatography (SEC) showed that the denatured forms produced at pH 12.0 are eluted in clusters that co-elute with the native forms. A significant contribution from the tyrosines to the fluorescence emission upon denaturation was observed above 328 K. In fact at 328 K some broadening of the emission spectrum takes place followed by the appearance of a shoulder (approx. 305 nm) at 333 K and above. The sensitivity of tryptophan fluorescence to the addition of sugar suggests a close proximity of the tryptophan residues to the sugar binding site, K(a)=(2.9+/-0.6)x10(3) M(-1). The fraction of chromophore accessible to the quencher obtained is f(a)=0.43+/-0.08, suggesting that approximately 50% of the tryptophan residues are not accessible to quenching by d-mannose. KM+ thermal denaturation was found to be irreversible and was analyzed using a two-state model (N-->D). The results obtained for the activation energy and transition temperature from the equilibrium CD studies were: activation energy, E(a)=134+/-11 kJ/mol and transition temperature, T(m)=339+/-1 K, and from the fluorescence data: E(a)=179+/-18 kJ/mol and T(m)=337+/-1 K. Kinetic studies gave the following values: E(a)=108+/-18 kJ/mol and E(a)=167+/-12 kJ/mol for CD and fluorescence data, respectively.

Abstract
J-aggregates of the diacid form of tetra(p-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin (THPP) were found to be stable in nonionic micellar solution in the presence of trace ionic surfactant with an oxyacid headgroup. The excitation energy of exciton coupling depends systematically on the headgroups of the ionic surfactant, by which strong and weak coupling can be accomplished in the J-aggregates. The J-aggregates have two strong exciton bands corresponding to the B- and Q-bands of the protonated monomers. The total fluorescence of THPP is quenched through aggregate formation. A strong and sharply peaked resonance light-scattering signal that suggests a delocalized excitonic state was observed just slightly to the red of the absorption maximum of the J-aggregates. The overall resonance Raman intensities appeared to be stronger in the aggregates than in the monomers. In the kinetics of aggregation induced by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), no characteristics of autocatalyzed reactions were observed, and there was only a logarithmic phase that lasted only several seconds.

Abstract
In this work, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies on the interaction of three anionic mesotetrakis (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrins, TPPS4, FeTPPS4, and ZnTPPS4, at concentrations in the 2-10 mM range, with micelles of the zwitterionic surfactant 3-(N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethylammonium) propane sulfonate (HPS, 30 mM) at pH 4.0 and 9.0 are reported. The SAXS results demonstrate that, upon addition of all species of porphyrins, the HPS micelle of prolate shape reduces its axial ratio from 1.8 +/- 0.2 (in the absence of porphyrin) to 1.5 +/- 0.1. Such an effect is accompanied by a shrinking of the paraffinic shortest semiaxis from 22.5 +/- 0.5 A to 18.0 +/- 0.2 A. This shows that the micellar hydrophobic core is affected by porphyrin incorporation, independent of the type of porphyrin and pH. Concurrently, EPR results demonstrate an increase in the micellar packing as noticed from the increase in motional restriction for both nitroxides. Furthermore, increase of the porphyrin concentration induces the appearance of a repulsive interference function over the SAXS curve of zwitterionic micelles, which is typical of an interaction between surface-charged micelles. Such a finding gives strong evidence that the negatively charged porphyrin molecule must accommodate in the HPS micelle dipole layer close to the inner positive charges (near the hydrophobic core), inducing a surface charge (probably a negative one associated with the HPS sulfonate external groups) in the original zwitterionic (overall neutral) micelle. Such a porphyrin location is favored by both electrostatic and hydrophobic contributions, giving rise to binding constant values that are quite large compared to the binding of cationic drugs to HPS micelles (Caetano, W.; Barbosa, L. R. S.; Itri, R.; Tabak, M. J. Coll. Int. Sci. 2003, 260, 414).

Abstract
The interactions between the 5-(4-acryloyloxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tritolylporphyrin covalently attached to poly(methacrylic acid) chain (PMA-Po) and phosphatidylcholine liposomes in aqueous solution at different pH values were studied. The binding constants (K(b)) for the liposome- PMA-Po in solutions in the pH range from 6.5 to 9.2 were determined using fluorescence spectroscopy. The binding was found to be efficient. The acid-base properties of the porphyrin chromophores were also studied. Both pK values associated with imine-N protonation of the porphyrin core were found to be 6.4. The quantum yield (Phi(Delta)) of singlet oxygen production by Po in the lipid-PMA-Po system was found to be high (0.88 +/- 0.05).

Abstract
We have studied the reaction kinetics of ten manganese porphyrins, differing in their meso substituents, with peroxynitrite (ONOO-) and carbonate radical anion (CO3.) using stopped-flow and pulse radiolysis, respectively. Rate constants for the reactions of Mn(III) porphyrins with ONOO- ranged from 1 x 10(5) to 3.4 x 10(7) m(-1) s(-1) and correlated well with previously reported kinetic and thermodynamic data that reflect the resonance and inductive effects of the substituents on the porphyrin ring. Rate constants for the reactions of Mn(III) porphyrins with CO3. ranged from 2 x 10(8) to 1.2 x 10(9) m(-1)s(-1) at pH <or= 8.5 and increased with pH as a consequence of the ionization of the complexes. Mn(II) porphyrins reacted with CO3. with rate constants ranging from 1 x 10(9) to 5 x 10(9) m(-1)s(-1) at pH 10.4. Hence, fast scavenging of ONOO- and CO3. by manganese porphyrins could occur in vivo because of the catalytic reduction at the expense of a number of cellular reductants. Additionally, we determined the pKa of the axial water molecules of the Mn(III) complexes at pH 7.5-13.2 by spectrophotometric titration. Results were consistent with two acid-base equilibria for most of the complexes studied. The pKa values also correlated with the resonance and inductive effects of the substituents. The correlations of E(1/2) with the rate constants with ONOO- and with the pKa values display a deviation from linearity when N-alkylpyridinium substituents included N-alkyl moieties longer than ethyl, which is interpreted in terms of a decrease in the local dielectric constant.

Abstract
The equilibrium behavior of cationic iron(III) meso-tetrakis(4-N-methyl-pyridiniumyl) porphyrin, Fe(III)TMPyP, in aqueous solution was studied as a function of pH by optical absorption, EPR and (1)H NMR spectroscopies. The presence of several Fe(III)TMPyP species in solution was unequivocally demonstrated: monomeric porphyrin species (a monoaqueous five-coordinated complex, a diaaqueous six-coordinated complex and a monoaqueous-hydroxo six-coordinated complex), a micro-oxo dimer and a bis-hydroxo complex. The addition of salt to the porphyrin solution leads to a simplification of the equilibrium as a function of pH. In this case, only three species were observed in solution: a monomeric porphyrin species, a micro-oxo dimer and a bis-hydroxo complex. Optical absorption, EPR and (1)H NMR spectra contributed to the characterization of these species. Four critical pH values (pK) for Fe(III)TMPyP were obtained in pure buffer and only three pK values were observed in the presence of NaCl. The addition of salt favors the presence of the dimeric species in solution and simplifies the equilibrium in the acidic pH range.

Abstract
Interactions of the water soluble Fe(III)- and Zn(II)-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrins, FeTPPS(4) and ZnTPPS(4), with ionic and nonionic micelles in aqueous solutions have been studied by optical absorption, fluorescence, resonance light-scattering (RLS), and 1H NMR spectroscopies. The presence of three different species of both Fe(III)- and Zn(II)TPPS(4) in cationic cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) solution has been unequivocally demonstrated: free metalloporphyrin monomers or dimers (pH 9), metalloporphyrin monomers or aggregates (possibly micro-oxo dimers) bound to the micelles, and nonmicellar metalloporphyrin/surfactant aggregates. The surfactant:metalloporphyrin ratio for the maximum nonmicellar aggregate formation is around 5-8 for Fe(III)TPPS(4) both at pH 4.0 and 9.0; for Zn(II)TPPS(4) this ratio is 8, and the spectral changes are practically independent of pH. In the case of zwitterionic N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate (HPS) and non-ionic polyoxyethylene lauryl ether (Brij-35) and t-octylphenoxypolyethoxyetanol (Triton X-100), the nonmicellar aggregates were not observed in the pH range from 2.0 to 12.0. Binding constants were calculated from optical absorption data and are of the order of 10(4) M(-1) for both CTAC and HPS, values which are similar to those previously obtained for the porphyrin in the free base form. For Brij-35 and Triton X-100 the binding constant for ZnTPPS(4) at pH 4.0 is a factor of 3-5 lower than those for CTAC and HPS, while in the case of FeTPPS(4) they are two orders of magnitude lower. Our data show that solubilization of ZnTPPS(4) within nonpolar regions of micelles is determined, in general, by nonspecific hydrophobic interactions, yet it is modulated by electrostatic factors. In the case of FeTPPS(4), the electrostatic factor seems to be more relevant. NMR data indicated that Fe(III)TPPS(4) is bound to the micelles predominantly as a monomer at pH 4.0, and at pH 9.0 the bound aggregated form (possibly micro-oxo dimers) remains. The metalloporphyrins were incorporated into the micelles near the terminal part of their hydrocarbon chains, as evidenced by a strong upfield shift of the corresponding peaks of the surfactants.

Abstract
The changes in the nonlinear absorption of meso-tetrakis (p-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin (TPPS(4)) caused by its binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated in aqueous solutions. The nonlinear absorption depended on the excitation wavelength and pH. It is noteworthy that, for excitation at 640 nm, saturated absorption was observed in a TPPS(4) solution (pH 4.0), whereas reverse saturated absorption occurred for all pH values from 4.0 to 7.0 when BSA was added to TPPS(4). The presence of BSA also initiates an increase in the saturation intensity and a reduction of the nonlinear absorption coefficient. The interpretation of the results based on the binding of TPPS(4) to BSA is corroborated by linear absorption, fluorescence, light scattering, and flash-photolysis data.

Abstract
We demonstrate the use of the Z-scan technique as a method to measure a chemical parameter, the pK(a) value, that characterizes the equilibrium constant in acid-base reactions. The measurements were performed with picosecond pulses at 532 nm in Fe(III)-meso-tetrakis(4-N-methyl-pyridyl) porphyrin. The results were compared with linear absorption measurements and electron paramagnetic resonance, the usual techniques employed to determine pK(a) values in aqueous solutions, and showed excellent agreement.

Abstract
Interaction of the Fe(III) derivative of tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS(4)), and diamagnetic ZnTPPS(4) and metal-free TPPS(4), with the simplest models for membranes and protein reaction centers, aqueous (AM) and reversed (RM) ionic micelles, was studied by high-resolution (1)H NMR and proton magnetic relaxation measurements. AM were much more sensitive than RM to the bulky porphyrins, seemingly, because of the more restricted motion of surfactant chains in AM. TPPS(4) and its derivatives were incorporated into the AM of cationic cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) or zwitterionic lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) near the terminal part of their hydrocarbon chains, as evidenced by a strong upfield shift of the corresponding peaks. At a FeTPPS(4)/CTAC molar ratio greater than 0.05 and a pH > 4, FeTPPS(4) partly formed nonparamagnetic aggregates, which dissociated into monomers at pH < 4. In CTAC RM, FeTPPS(4) was predominantly aggregated, the transition to the monomer form occurring upon acidification of the water RM interior to about pH -1. No similar pH dependencies were found for ZnTPPS(4) and TPPS(4). It is supposed that charged porphyrins may interact with cellular membranes. Characteristic pH dependence of the FeTPPS(4) aggregation in micelles suggests that aggregated units are bound through a &mgr;-oxo-bridge. Similar mechanisms may be operative in other systems, such as porphyrin-protein.

Abstract
Interactions of the water-soluble Mn(III) complex of meso-tetrakis (4-N-methyl-pyridiniumyl) porphyrin (Mn(III)TMPyP) with DNA in aqueous solutions at low (0.01 M) and high (0.2 M) ionic strengths have been studied by optical absorption, resonance light scattering (RLS) and 1H NMR spectroscopies. Optical absorption and RLS measurements have demonstrated that in DNA solutions at low ionic strength the Mn(III)TMPyP form aggregates, which are decomposed at DNA excess. At high ionic strength the aggregation was not observed. We explain this effect by assuming that upon increase in ionic strength, Mn(III) TMPyP dislocates from the DNA sites, which produces better conditions for the porphyrin aggregation, to sites where the aggregation is hindered. The 1H NMR data demonstrated that the aggregation observed at low ionic strength reduces the paramagnetism of Mn(III)TMPyP. This phenomenon was not observed at the high ionic strength in the absence of aggregation.

Abstract
Noncovalent face-to-face heterodimers and -trimers between beta-tetracationic and meso-tetraanionic manganese(III) porphyrins have been prepared in bulk water at pH 12. They are held together by Coulomb interactions between four beta-methylpyridinium and meso-phenylsulfonate or meso-phenylcarboxylate ion pairs in eclipsed orientations. Spectroelectrochemistry has been used to characterize the redox products and to establish reversibility. UV-visible titrations indicate quantitative trimerization at concentrations >10(-)(5) M. Cyclic voltammetry shows that all three Mn(III) ions were oxidized simultaneously to Mn(IV) at potentials close to 300 mV at pH 12. Electroreduction to Mn(II) was often not observed in the trimers, although the monomers reacted readily under the same conditions. Quantitative chemical reduction of Mn(III) to Mn(II) porphyrin trimers was, however, achieved with dithionite. Trimers containing three paramagnetic Mn(II) or Mn(IV) ions are thus easily accessible. The heterodimers and -trimers and homodimers also catalyzed the formation of dioxygen by electrooxidation of Mn(III) to Mn(IV) between 0.6 and 2.0 V while at pH 12.

Abstract
Binding of Fe(III) meso-tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)-porphyrin (FeTPPS4) to bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by UV-VIS absorption, fluorescence quenching, circular dichroism, 1H NMR, and ESR. At excess of BSA, the bound form of FeTPPS4 is a high-spin monomer exhibiting a Soret band at 417 nm, a broad NMR peak at 10.3 ppm, an ESR signal at g = 5.7-5.9, and a strong enhancement of magnetic relaxation of water protons. In the intermediate concentration range, a formation of nonparamagnetic bound aggregates of FeTPPS4 occurs (up to 10-15 molecules at pH 6.0) with a Soret band at 414 nm and NMR peaks at 7.0, 8.1, and 12.7 ppm. In the physiologic pH range, BSA binds the monomeric form of FeTPPS4 with an association constant of about 10(8) M-1, the affinity to oxo-dimers in solution being much lower. BSA itself is also subject to aggregation with an average aggregation number of 4-8 in the physiological pH range. It is assumed that aggregation phenomena may play an important role, both in the relaxation efficiency of metalloporphyrins as MRI contrast agents and in the blood transport of porphyrin drugs by albumins.

Abstract
The interaction of Fe(III) and Mn(III) complexes of TPPS4 with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by T1 relaxation measurements of water protons and high resolution 1H NMR of the porphyrin moieties. At excess of BSA, both metalloporphyrins bind to BSA as the high spin monomers. The relaxivity of bound MnTPPS4 is significantly higher as compared to the free form in solution. When metalloporphyrins are in excess, they aggregate at the BSA surface, up to two MnTPPS4, and up to 10-15 FeTPPS4 units per BSA globule. Bound aggregates are unable to enhance magnetic relaxation of water protons due to the antiferromagnetic coupling between metal ions in the aggregates. Therefore, the dose-effect dependences for metalloporphyrins in the range of metalloporphyrin/BSA ratio of 0 to 25 at the constant BSA concentration at pH 7.4 are characterized by a local maximum at about 2 for MnTPPS4, and a global maximum at about 3 for FeTPPS4, MnTPPS4 complex is more effective than FeTPPS4 in the whole concentration range. It is suggested that the difference in binding and aggregation properties of metalloporphyrins may be relevant to their relaxation efficiency in vivo, blood transport, and biodistribution.
