A series of meso-phenylpyridylporphyrins and their respective supermolecular species obtained by the coordination of [ Ru ( bipy )2 Cl ]+ groups to the pyridyl substituents was synthesized and characterized. Their spectroscopic and electrochemical behavior were similar to that observed for the meso-tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrin derivative, but the redox potential of the Ru (III/II) redox pair was about 70 mV more negative. The porphyrin centered fluorescence quantum yield exhibited a linear decrease as a function of the number of pyridyl substituents on the porphyrin ring. Efficient intramolecular energy transfer processes from the 3 MLCT state of the ruthenium complexes to the porphyrin center were observed at 77K in ethanol glass.

Stilbene dendrimers with energy harvesting chromophores, such as naphthalene and benzophenone, have been prepared and their photochemical and photophysical properties have been examined. These dendrimers underwent trans–cis mutual photoisomerization on excitation of the core stilbene or the peripheral naphthalene and benzophenone chromophores through several energy transfer processes, and photophysical processes such as intersystem crossing finally resulted in cis-trans isomerization of the core stilbene.

Excitation spectra of chlorophyll fluorescence from intact rye leaves were registered at different steps of the induction of photosynthesis after dark adaptation. Analysis of these spectra indicates that at least two processes related to spectroscopic features are responsible for a fluorescence quenching. The first one, active during the first 100 s of illumination, was interpreted to consists in an overall decrease of the fluorescence quantum yield of antenna pigments and chlorophylls, in particular close to the reaction centers. The second type of a fluorescence decrease (between 100 s and 300 s of illumination) was found to be in large extent related to decrease of the rate of an excitation energy transfer between accessory xanthophyll pigments and chlorophylls emitting fluorescence. This latter molecular mechanism is discussed as being related to violaxanthin availability to de-epoxidation in the xanthophyll cycle.

New complexes of ytterbium with porphyrins containing crown- and other oxygen-containing cyclic substituents were obtained. The absorption, excitation, ligand luminescence and 4f-luminescence spectra have been investigated. It has been shown that 4f-luminescence of ytterbium Yb ( III ) ions was a result of the intramolecular energy transfer from the triplet level of the ligands to the resonance 2F5/2 level of Yb ( III ). It has been also established that in presence of alkali metal Na , K and Cs the dimer complexes (sandwich-type) of ytterbium-crown-porphyrin were formed. Molecular luminescence of the porphyrin matrix was quenched completely in these dimers, but at the same time the quantum yield and lifetime of 4f-luminescence increase in the complexes.

Lipophilic substituted zinc(II) phthalocyanines: 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis[(N,N-dimethylaminoethylsulfanyl)]phthalocyaninatozinc(II) (S1) and tetrakis(N,N-dibutylaminoethoxy)phthalocyaninatozinc(II) (3) were incorporated into soybean L-α-phosphatidylcholine (SPC) liposomes of 100 nm diameter. Liposomes were characterized by static light scattering (SLS), transmission electronic microscopy (TEM), and differential scanning calorimetry. The fluorescence quantum yield and singlet molecular oxygen production of 3 are Φ F = 0.15 and ΦΔ = 0.24, respectively, whereas the same photophysical parameters for S1 are Φ F = 0.13 and ΦΔ = 0.51. Higher values of Φ F and ΦΔ are obtained in organic solvent for both dyes. Synthesis of compound 3 has also been reported.

Abstract In this paper, a series of click reaction-based Bodipy derivatives have been synthesized as part of a preliminary study. Following the characterization of the four challenger molecules, the photophysical properties (absorption, emission, excitation, molar absorption coefficient, quantum yield, etc.) were examined in various organic solvents. The results showed that the energy transfer from the Bodipy cores to other moieties was calculated between 71% and 93% depending on different π-electron configurations and chromophore groups.

A series of BN-phenanthrenes with substituents of a diverse nature have been synthesized by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of a common chloro-substituted precursor, which was made from readily available materials in only four steps. Evaluation of the photophysical properties of the prepared compounds unveiled an impressive effect of the presence of alkynyl substituents on the fluorescence quantum yield, which improved from 0.01 in the parent compound to up to 0.65 in derivatives containing a triple bond.
