The synthesis of a porphyrin star-pentamer bearing a free-base porphyrin core and four zinc(ii) metalloporphyrins, which are tethered by a conformationally flexible linker about the central porphyrin’s antipody, is described. The synthetic strategy is highlighted by the use of olefin cross metathesis to link the five chromophores together in a directed fashion in high yield. Photoexcitation into the Soret absorption band of the zinc porphyrin chromophores at 425 nm leads to a substantial enhancement of central free-base porphyrin fluorescence, indicating energy transfer from the photoexcited zinc porphyrin (outer periphery) to central free-base porphyrin. Time-resolved fluorescence decay profiles required three exponential decay components for satisfactory fitting. These are attributed to emission from the central free-base porphyrin and to two different rates of energy transfer from the zinc porphyrins to the free-base porphyrin. The faster of these decay components equates to an energy-transfer rate constant of 3.7 × 109 s–1 and an efficiency of 83%, whereas the other is essentially unquenched with respect to reported values for zinc porphyrin fluorescence decay times. The relative contribution of these two components to the initial fluorescence decay is ~3:2, similar to the 5:4 ratio of cis and trans geometric isomers present in the pentamer.

In this paper we now report our ongoing progress in the preparation of artificial photosynthetic systems through the preparation of light harvesting multi-porphyrins. A tetramer, constituted of a central dipeptide functionalized by two free-base porphyrins and surrounded by one amino-acid bearing a pendant Zn ( II ) porphyrin on each side, has been chosen. The optical and photophysical properties of this tetramer have been studied by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, the energy transfer phenomenon has been studied and monitored by femtosecond time-resolved fluorescence. Our results indicate that the excited state dynamics redounding in the excitation being localized in the inner free-base porphyrins takes place in the time scale of approximately 1 ps.

In this study, free-base meso 5,10,15,20-tetra(pyren-1-yl)porphyrin (H2TPyP) and its corresponding indium(III) complex (InClTPyP) were synthesized and characterized on the basis of mass spectrometry, 1H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. InClTPyP was obtained in good yield by treating the free base H2TPyP with indium(III) chloride. Purification of these compounds was achieved through column chromatography using different solvent systems. Metallation of the free base to form a metallo-porphyrin afforded improved photophysical properties. There was a bathochromic shift in wavelength of absorption from the parent free base H2TPyP ([Formula: see text] = 431 nm) to metallated indium(III) complex ([Formula: see text] = 443 nm). The fluorescence quantum yield in H2TPyP was higher ([Formula: see text] = 0.131) than in InClTPyP ([Formula: see text] = 0.017) due to efficient intersystem crossing to the triplet manifold in the metallated porphyrin. Upon illumination, both H2TPyP and InClTPyP show effective dose dependent antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with photoinactivation IC[Formula: see text] values of 27.89 and 16.67 [Formula: see text]M, respectively.

Synthesis, structural characterization and photophysical properties for a series of new trans-A2B2- and A3B-type ethynyl functionalized meso-phenothiazinyl-phenyl porphyrin derivatives are described. The new compounds displayed the characteristic porphyrin absorption spectra slightly modified by weak auxochromic effects of the substituents and fluorescence emission in the range of 651–659 nm with 11–25% quantum yields. The changes recorded in the UV-vis absorption spectra in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) are consistent with the protonation of the two internal nitrogen atoms of the free-base porphyrin (19 nm bathochromic shift of the strong Soret band and one long wave absorption maxima situated in the range of 665–695 nm). Protonation of the phenothiazine substituents required increased amounts of TFA and produced a distinct hypsochromic shift of the long wave absorption maxima. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations of a porphyrin dication pointed out a saddle-distorted porphyrin ring as the ground-state geometry.

A novel series of β-triazoloporphyrin–xanthone conjugates and xanthone-bridged β-triazoloporphyrin dyads has been synthesized in moderate to good yields through Cu(I)-catalyzed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of copper(II) 2-azido-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin or zinc(II) 2-azidomethyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin with various alkyne derivatives of xanthones in DMF containing CuSO4 and ascorbic acid at 80 °C. Furthermore, these metalloporphyrins underwent demetalation under acidic conditions to afford the corresponding free-base porphyrins in good to excellent yields. After successful spectroscopic characterization, these porphyrins have been evaluated for their photophysical properties. The preliminary results revealed a bathochromic shift in the UV–vis and fluorescence spectra of these porphyrin–xanthone dyads.

Absorption And Emission

We present results of an experimental photophysical study of a series of novel brominated and non-brominated porphyrins that contain phenyl, carbazole, or triphenylamine in the meso-position. In addition we have looked at the effects of incorporating a zinc metal into the porphyrin system relative to the free base. Structure-property relationships are established using various absorption and emission techniques including femtosecond pump probe transient absorption and nanosecond laser flash photolysis. With slightly increasing electron donating strength (phenyl < carbazole < triphenylamine) red shifts were observed in all data. The same effect was observed upon the addition of bromine in the beta position. Due to the heavy atom affect of the bromines both the singlet and triplet excited state lifetimes were significantly shorter in the brominated porphyrins. For the T1–Tn absorption data we observe a large absorption in the near infrared region with the brominated carbazole and triphenylamine. The largest effect of the addition of zinc was in the ground state absorption and emission where a blue shift in the data was observed. Some effects were also observed in the kinetic decays with zinc as the metal compared to the free base porphyrins.
