Abstract
Incorporating fluorine atoms into a molecule can endow it with various unique properties that enable materials applications. Selective solubility in fluorous solvents is achieved by a high fluorine content and selective partitioning into perfluorinated liquids over organic and aqueous phases provides orthogonal opportunities for chemistry and materials assembly. Although there is a growing number of partially fluorinated molecules, there are insufficient structural design principles to produce diverse fluorous soluble dyes. Herein, we report the synthesis of six fluorous phthalocyanine and subphthalocyanine dyes, and study their properties in the fluorous phase. Phthalocyanines generally display limited solubility and we also observed apparent aggregation in the fluorous phase. However, the nonplanar subphthalocyanines showed greater solubility. Subphthalocyanines also displayed fluorescence in selected solvents, and their emissive properties were investigated. The materials described expand the library of fluorous dyes and provide insights for the design of new molecules with fluorous solubility.

Abstract
Supramolecular organic dye–inorganic semiconductor nanocrystal assemblies are potentially useful in a broad range of technologies and applications, including photovoltaic systems, but the molecular basis of the adsorption of dye molecules onto the semiconductor surfaces remains poorly understood. Herein, we investigated the pH-dependent adsorption and conformational change of two cationic porphyrin stereoisomers [5,10-diphenyl-15,20-di([Formula: see text]-methyl-4-pyridyl)porphyrin (cis-DMPyP) and 5,15-diphenyl-10,20-di([Formula: see text]-methyl-4-pyridyl)porphyrin (trans-DMPyP)] on the tungsten(VI) oxide (WO[Formula: see text] colloid nanoparticle in aqueous media by means of UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. In accordance with the combination of a modified Langmuir adsorption model and Kasha’s exciton coupling model, the molecular orientation and stacking arrangement of DMPyP derivatives on the WO[Formula: see text] colloid surface are discussed in detail. In the trans-DMPyP/WO[Formula: see text] aqueous system, trans-DMPyP molecules adopted flat-on orientation with respect to the WO[Formula: see text] colloid surface and eventually formed head-to-tail [Formula: see text]-dimers regardless of pH conditions. cis-DMPyP molecules in the acidic system also lay flat-on and mainly formed [Formula: see text]-dimers on the WO[Formula: see text] colloid surface, whereas ones in the neutral system exhibited a dominant edge-on orientation and had a higher tendency to form face-to-face [Formula: see text]-dimers. Additionally, we have also convincingly demonstrated the pH-triggered switchable [Formula: see text]-stacking geometry of cis-DMPyP molecules from [Formula: see text]- to [Formula: see text]-dimer and vice versa on the WO[Formula: see text] colloid surface. Such findings will undoubtedly provide a pertinent guideline for the rational design of stimuli-responsive organic-inorganic materials.

Abstract
In recent years, the development of optical probes to analyse trace palladium ions (Pd(2+)) has attracted great attention because of the residual palladium released by catalytic converters or from various Pd-catalysed reactions. These residual palladium ions may cause potential health hazards. This review provides a brief introduction to the new methods used to determine trace amounts of Pd(2+), which then mainly focuses on the different reporting systems and unique mechanisms of the colourimetric and fluorescent probes used to detect Pd(2+), including Pd(2+) complex formation or Pd-catalysed reactions.

Abstract
The photocontrollable J-aggregation of a diarylethene-phthalocyanine hybrid (T-ZnPc) and its aggregation-stabilized photochromic behavior were investigated by various techniques. T-ZnPc initially exhibited slight J-aggregation tendency in solvents such as chloroform and toluene through conformational planarization effect, but formed much stronger J-aggregates upon the illumination of 254 nm UV light. In darkness, the UV-irradiated solutions gradually returned to their initial state. These phenomena can be explained by the pronounced change in molecular planarity accompanying the reversible isomerization of the diarylethene units of T-ZnPc. Besides, we have found that the thermal stability of the closed-ring diarylethene isomers in molecularly dispersed T-ZnPc is much poorer than that in aggregates. As long as the aggregates were broken, they converted to corresponding open-ring form instantly. This study provided an example of fully photocontrollable aggregation of phthalocyanines and paved a new way for improving the stability of the photochromic systems.

Abstract
Some new experimental methods for measuring the optical chirality of molecular aggregates formed at liquid-liquid interfaces have been reviewed. Chirality measurements of interfacial aggregates are highly important not only in analytical spectroscopy but also in biochemistry and surface nanochemistry. Among these methods, a centrifugal liquid membrane method was shown to be a highly versatile method for measuring the optical chirality of the liquid-liquid interface when used in combination with a commercially available circular dichroism (CD) spectropolarimeter, provided that the interfacial aggregate exhibited a large molar absorptivity. Therefore, porphyrin and phthalocyanine were used as chromophoric probes of the chirality of itself or guest molecules at the interface. A microscopic CD method was also demonstrated for the measurement of a small region of a film or a sheet sample. In addition, second-harmonic generation and Raman scattering methods were reviewed as promising methods for detecting interfacial optical molecules and measuring bond distortions of chiral molecules, respectively.

Abstract
The monomer-aggregate equilibrium of four phenothiazine (PN) dyes, containing thionine (TH), methylene blue (MB), new methylene blue (NMB), and 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue (DMB), in the tungsten(VI) oxide (WO(3)) nanocolloid solution has been investigated by means of UV-vis spectroscopy. Addition of PN dye into the WO(3) nanocolloid solution brought about significant changes in the absorption spectrum, suggesting the formation of H-type (face-to-face fashion) trimer on the WO(3) nanocolloid surface. The adsorptivity of PN dyes onto the WO(3) nanocolloid surface was diminished by the raising the ionic strength, indicating the evidence of the electrostatic interaction between cationic PN dye and negatively charged WO(3) nanocolloids. The detail analysis of each spectral data provided insight into the effect of molecular structure of PN dyes on the adsorption and aggregation behaviors on the WO(3) nanocolloid surface. Moreover, in situ measurement of PN dye aggregation using the centrifugal liquid membrane (CLM) technique revealed that the aggregation of PN dyes on the WO(3) nanocolloid surface proceeded in a two-step three-stage (monomer --> dimer --> trimer) formation. The aggregation mechanism of PN dyes on the WO(3) nanocolloid surface was discussed on the basis of Kasha's exciton theory.

Abstract
The photoresponsive J-aggregation behaviors of a novel azobenzene-substituted zinc phthalocyanine (azo-ZnPc dyad) were studied by UV/vis, fluorescence, and (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Upon illumination with 365 nm UV light, the trans-cis isomerization of azobenzene can efficiently reduce the steric hindrance around the peripheral oxygen atom of azo-ZnPc, shortening the possible distance between two phthalocyanine molecules and, consequently, greatly improving the tendency of J-aggregation of azo-ZnPc dyad. The third-order optical nonlinearities of the photoresponsive J-aggregates (before and after illumination) were measured by a Z-scan technique at 532 nm with a pulse duration of 25 ps. The Z-scan spectra revealed that all the samples possessed large positive nonlinear refraction and positive nonlinear absorption, exhibiting a self-focusing effect and reverse saturable absorption, respectively. The second molecular hyperpolarizabilities of the dyad in two conditions were measured to be 3.87 x 10(-30) and 4.82 x 10(-30) esu, respectively. All the results suggest that the azo-ZnPc dyad has potential in the field of nonlinear optics applications.

Abstract
Tetrakis(aryloxy)phthalocyanine (4c) and its Zn congeners (4a and 4b) and Ni congener (4d) were synthesized, and their self-assembling properties in coordinating and non-coordinating solvents were investigated by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Compounds 4a and 4b in non-coordinating solvents exhibit red-shifted and split Q-bands in absorption spectra even at very low concentrations, suggesting J-aggregate formation. The MALDI-TOF MS for the samples of 4a and 4b prepared from chloroform solutions gives the monomer and aggregate signals. The TEM images of such samples display an indefinite two-dimensional network structure. The aggregates break up into monomers when a coordinating solvent is added to the solution. The driving force for the aggregate formation is proposed to be the complementary coordination of the ether oxygen in the aryloxy groups of one molecule to the core Zn of another molecule of phthalocyanine.

Abstract
Subphthalocyaninatoboron(III) was applied for the first time as a novel marker-tag of testosterone (Subpc-test) for the binding analysis with human serum albumin (HSA) at a liquid/liquid interface. The binding interaction of Subpc-test with HSA at the n-hexane/water interface was studied by UV-visible absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy combined with a centrifugal liquid membrane cell at different pHs of aqueous solutions. Complementary studies by a high-speed stirring experiment and an interfacial tension measurement were also performed to characterize the interfacial adsorptivity of Subpc-test and HSA molecules, respectively. The n-hexane solution of Subpc-test showed no optical chirality, but the contact with the aqueous solution of HSA induced its optical chirality, clearly suggesting the formation of Subpc-test/HSA complexes at the n-hexane/water interface. Furthermore, pH profiles of CD signals showed that the interaction between Subpc-test and HSA was very sensitive to the neutral-to-base transition (N-B transition). Interfacial formation of the Subpc-test/HSA complex was studied in the presence of the site-selective ligand, furosemide (site I) or cefaclor (site II). The experimental results suggested that Subpc-test is bound to site I of the HSA molecule at the n-hexane/water interface. This technique using subphthalocyanine as a tag molecule and the liquid/liquid interface as a two-dimensional nanoreaction field will be useful for the evaluation of the interaction between drugs or hormones and proteins.

Abstract
A chiral thioether-substituted phthalocyanine ((2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis-1-phenylethylthiophthalocyaninato)magnesium(II) [MgPc(SEtPh)8]) has been synthesized, which can be bound by soft-metal ions such as palladium(II) ion. Aggregates formed from MgPc(SEtPh)8 and Pd(II) in toluene and at the toluene/water interface were characterized by means of UV-vis absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectrometries using centrifugal liquid-membrane (CLM) cell. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used as complementary techniques. The toluene solution of MgPc(SEtPh)8 had no optical chirality. However, the addition of PdCl2 into the toluene solution of MgPc(SEtPh)8 induced optical chirality, which indicated the formation of a twisted H-type dimer (face-to-face fashion) of MgPc(SEtPh)8 bound by four PdCl2 in the bulk toluene solution. On the other hand, in the toluene/water interface, helical J-aggregate (head-to-tail fashion) of MgPc(SEtPh)8 bound by PdCl2 was formed, in which one J-aggregate unit contained five 1:2 complexes of MgPc(SEtPh)8-Pd(II) on average. On the basis of the experimental results and the exciton theory for optical chirality, a possible mechanism for the chiral aggregation of MgPc(SEtPh)8-Pd(II) complexes at the interface was proposed. In the present study, we demonstrated a novel strategy for the design of helical phthalocyanine aggregates using the liquid/liquid interface as a template.

Abstract
The Pd(II)-2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl (BINAP)-mediated chiral assembly of thioether-derivatised phthalocyanatomagnesium(II) compounds (MgPc(SR)8, SR is benzylthio (SBz) or benzhydrylthio (Bh)) was formed in toluene and at the toluene/water interface, and investigated by means of UV-Vis absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy combined with the centrifugal liquid-membrane (CLM) devise. Interfacial tension measurements indicated that, in the presence of PdSO4 in the aqueous phase, BINAP ligand adsorbed as a monolayer forming Pd(II)BINAP2+ complex at the toluene/water interface. UV-Vis absorption spectrum of MgPc(SR)8 in the Q-band region was blue-shifted in toluene upon addition of [Pd(II)BINAP]Cl2, but red-shifted at the toluene/water interface when Pd(II)BINAP2+ was formed at the interface. These results suggested that MgPc(SR)8-Pd(II)BINAP complex formed H-aggregate (face-to-face type) in toluene solution and J-aggregate (end-to-end type) at the toluene/water interface, respectively. Moreover, the specific bisignate CD spectral pattern in both systems indicated that the aggregates of MgPc(SR)8-Pd(II)BINAP complexes were chirally twisted, well controlled by the chirality of BINAP ligand. Very interestingly, the morphology of MgPc(SBz)8-Pd(II)BINAP and MgPc(SBh)8-Pd(II)BINAP aggregates formed at the toluene/water interface were significantly different as the rodlike and the ribbonlike crystalline structure, respectively, as observed by a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). On the basis of these experimental results, we proposed schematic molecular models of the chiral aggregates of MgPc(SR)8-Pd(II)BINAP complexes and demonstrated the specific role of the toluene/water interface.
