Zx. Liu et al., THE PHOTOPHYSICAL AND PHOTOCHEMICAL PROPE RTIES OF WATER-SOLUBLE METALLOPORPHYRINS IN AQUEOUS-SOLUTION, Gaodeng xuexiao huaxue xuebao, 17(10), 1996, pp. 1504-1508
Several photophysical (spectra, oscillator strength, lifetimes, and qu
antum yields for fluorescence), excited state redox properties and pho
to-stability of five water-soluble metalloporphyrins (ZnTMAPP, ZnTMPyP
, MgTMPyP, ZnTBPyP, and ZnTTPS4 where TMAPP = tetrakis-(trimethylamino
phenyl)porphyrin, TMPyP = tetrakis (N-methylpyridyl) porphyrin, TBPyP
= tetrakis (N-benzylpyridyl) porphyrin, and TTPS4 = tetrakis (3-sulpho
tolyl) porphyrin) were investigated. It was found that MgTMPyP is a go
od photosensitizer compared with others.
