Hydrogen bond controlled adduct formation of meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin with protic acids: a UV-vis spectroscopic study

Lewis acid induced spectral changes of sterically hindered and unhindered meso-tetra(aryl)porphyrins: fluorescence emission spectra

Fluorescence spectra of a series of electron-rich and electron-deficient meso-tetra(aryl)porphyrins and their molecular complexes with DDQ, TCNE and BF₃ were investigated and compared. In spite of the great resemblance between the absorption spectra of the molecular complexes, large differences were observed between their emission spectra.

Simple low cost porphyrinic photosensitizers for large scale chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides under green conditions: targeted protonation of porphyrins

Large scale chemoselective photooxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides in the presence of the diacids ofmeso-tetra(phenyl)porphyrin with different acids is reported.

Novel metal free porphyrinic photosensitizers supported on solvent-induced Amberlyst-15 nanoparticles with a porous structure

Immobilization of porphyrins on solvent-induced Amberlyst-15 nanoparticles led to the formation of novel porous porphyrinic photosensitizers with high photocatalytic activity towards the aerobic oxidation of olefins in acetonitrile.

The influence of protonation on the structure and spectral properties of porphine: UV-vis, 1H NMR and ab initio studies

Protonation of porphine with weak and strong acids in different solvents and concomitant UV-vis and ¹H NMR spectral changes are reported. The optimized structure of the dication was obtained from ab initio calculations.

The absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of meso-tetra(aryl)porphyrin dications with weak and strong carboxylic acids: a comparative study

The absorption and emission spectra, natural radiative lifetime, radiative rate constant (k_r) and the non-radiative one (k_nr) of the dications of a series of meso-tetra(aryl)porphyrins with CF₃COOH and HCOOH were studied and compared.

Long-lived charge-separated states produced in supramolecular complexes between anionic and cationic porphyrins

Photoinduced electron transfer in a porphyrin supramolecule occurs to produce an 83 ms CS state.
