Photoinduced energy transfer and charge transfer on squarylium cyanine dyes

A series of squarylium cyanine dyes (Sqs) were synthesized to explore their applications in functional devices.Preliminary investigation on the mechanism involved in these devices was carried out.Spectroscopic behavior of Sqs with porphyrin (P),8-hydroxyquinolium aluminum (Alq) and ruthenium bipyridyl complex (Ru(bipy)) in solution,in film and on nanocrystalline TiO2 was investigated,respectively.A mechanism including photoinduced energy transfer and charge transfer processes was suggested in the corresponding practical devices.By means of doping,a red organic electroluminescent device (ELD) using Sq-doped Alq as the emission layer (EML) has been developed,and the total light to electricity efficiency of nanocrystalline TiO2 electrode based on using Sq-doped Ru(bipy) as photosensitizer has been improved greatly in the whole visible region,particularly in the red area above 600 nm.     

Singlet oxygen generation ability of squarylium cyanine dyes

The quantum yields for singlet oxygen generation of several squarylium cyanine dyes derived from benzothiazole, benzoselenazole and quinoline, displaying absorption within the so-called “phototherapeutic window” (600–1000 nm), were determined, envisioning their potential usefulness for photodynamic therapy (PDT). The determination was performed by a direct method measuring the luminescence decay of the dyes in the near infrared. Considering the absorption and the quantum yields displayed by some of the dyes, these seemed to be potential candidates as sensitizers for PDT.

Electronic,optical, and charge transfer properties of porphyrin and metallated porphyrins in different media

Porphyrin and M-Porphyrin (M = Fe²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺) complexes were designed to examine their organic light-emitting diode (OLED) properties. All calculations were performed in different media, which are gas, benzene, DMSO, and water phases. The calculations of both porphyrin and its metal complexes as a monomer form were performed at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level by using the Gaussian 16 and GaussView 6 package programs. On the other hand, emission calculations for the monomer form and dimer form computations of the studied compounds were carried out at PBE0/TZP and B3LYP/TZP levels, respectively, by using Amsterdam density functional (ADF) 2019 package program. The OLED tensors of the mentioned molecules, which are emission energies, reorganization energies (λ_e and λ_h), the ionization potentials and the electron affinities (adiabatic and vertical), the effective transfer integrals (V_e and V_h), and the charge transfer rates (W_e and W_h), were calculated to evaluate the OLED behaviors and determine the best OLED structure.     

Sulfur-assisted interconversion between N-confused porphyrin and N-fused porphyrin

The ring-opening reaction of N-fused tetraphenylporphyrin (NFTPP-H, 2) to C3-substituted N-confused tetraphenylporphyrin (NCTPP-S-Ar, 4) proceeded efficiently in 85-95% yields. Furthermore, removal of the C3-arylthio-substituents in 4 was achieved by the two types of desulfurization reactions. The Ni₂B-mediated desulfurization afforded C3-free N-confused tetraphenylporphyrin (NCTPP-H, 1) whereas the radical-mediated desulfurization with (n-Bu)₃Sn-H and AIBN promoted the ring-fusion to afford 2.     

A representation of the polarization term in the interaction energy between a molecule and a point-like charge

The interaction energy of a molecule M with a point-like charge q can be partitioned into simpler contributions, two of which can be expressed in terms of the charge distribution _M of the sole M. The first term, qV(r), represents the interaction of q with the undistorted charge _M ⁰ of M while the second q ² P(r) gives the additional contributions due to the polarization of _M ⁰ under the influence of the charge q placed at the point r. In this paper we investigate the possibility of getting an inexpensive and sufficiently accurate analytical representation of P(r) over the whole space outside the van der Waals volume of M.

Photoinduced intermolecular and intramolecular actions between eosin and porphyrin

Two dyads of eosin and porphyrin linked with a semi-rigid (-CH2phCH2-) or flexible (-(CH2)4-) bridge and their reference model compounds were synthesized and characterized The intermoleccular interaction and intramolecular photoinduced singlet energy transfer and electron transfer were studied by their absorp tion spectra,fluorescence emission,excitation spectra and fluorescence lifetime The model compounds,ethyl ester of eosm (EoEt) and porphyrin (PorEt),could form complexes in the ground state.When the eosin moieties in dyads were excited,they could transfer some singlet energy to the porphyrins; in the meantime,they could also ndsce electron transfer between two chromophores.Exciting the porphyrin moieties in dyads could induce electron transfer from eosin moieties to porphyrin moieties.The efficiencies (EnT,ET) and rate constants (kEnT,kET) were related to the polarity of solvents and mutual orientation of the two chromophores in dyads.

Tuning the photoinduced electron transfer in near-infrared heptamethine cyanine dyes

An efficient photoinduced electron transfer (PET) system in near-infrared region was described. The PET in heptamethine cyanine dyes was tuned by changing the electron-donating ability of the substituent at the central position of the polymehine chain. 4-Aminophenylthio-substitution led to an efficient PET and the lowest fluorescence quantum yield. The acetylation, protonation or transition metal cation coordination of the amino group could recover fluorescence greatly via suppressing the PET.     

Intermolecular interaction coefficients using point charge models

Values of the two-body interaction coefficientsC6 andd4 between like species, as well as the three-body term 3, are obtained from point charge model formulae. Lewis set results may be compared with atomically centered wave-function values as well as results obtained using an experimental point charge model. Generally results are in good agreement with experiment and when theoretical values differ wildly from experiment they may be normalized using theoretical and experimental static polarizability values.     

Electrochemistry of a novel monoruthenated porphyrin and its interaction with DNA

Interactions of an anisomerous ruthenated porphyrin [Ru(MPyTPP)(bpy)₂Cl]⁺ (where bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, MPyTPP = 5-pyridyl-10,15,20-triphenyl porphyrin) with calf thymus DNA are studied using a tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) electrode. The Ru^III/II redox reaction for the complex exhibits a surface-controlled electron transfer process in buffer solutions. There exists an obvious interaction of the adsorbed [Ru(MPyTPP)(bpy)₂Cl]⁺ on an ITO electrode with DNA in the buffer solutions. The formal potential for [Ru(MPyTPP)(bpy)₂Cl]^2+/+ redox reaction is found to shift negatively in the presence of DNA compared with that in the absence of DNA. However, the current signals of [Ru(bpy)₃]^3+/2+ reaction exhibits a distinct catalytic enhancement to DNA, in contrast to the interactions of [Ru(MPyTPP)(bpy)₂Cl]⁺with DNA.     

Theoretical study of the N---H tautomerism in free base porphyrin

The N---H tautomerism of free base porphyrin is investigated at the semiempirical spin-unrestricted AM1 (UAM1) and ab initio RHF/3-21G levels. The UAM1 method provides delocalized geometries for all stationary structures without imposing any symmetry constraint. RHF/3-21G geometry optimizations have to be performed under symmetry restrictions to ensure that realistic delocalized structures are obtained. Both the semiempirical and the ab initio calculations predict that the interconversion between trans tautomers proceeds in an asynchronous two-step process via intermediate cis tautomers. The cis tautomers are characterized as minima in the potential energy surface and are 8–10 kcal mol⁻¹ higher in energy. The activation energy for the trans → cis interconversion is calculated to be approximately 23 kcal mol⁻¹ at the 3-21G level. The activation energy for the synchronous trans → trans interconversion is higher and has a value of 30.5 kcal mol⁻¹. The activation energies obtained at the semiempirical UAM1 level are twice as large as the ab initio values.     

Photochemical reaction between magnesium tetraphenyl porphyrin and oxygen

The photochemical reaction of magnesium tetraphenyl porphyrin （MgTPP） with O2 was studied in CH2Cl2 by steady-state fluorescence, UV-vis absorption, FTIR and MALDI-TOF MS measurements. These spectra indicate that O2 can react with MgTPP excited by irradiation, forming the stable 1：1 coordinated adduct of MgTPP-O2. In the adduct, the oxygen atoms of O2 may insert in the Mg-N bonds in MgTPP and bind with the nitrogen atoms of MgTPP to form N-O-Mg bonds.
