Spectroscopic study on the photophysical properties of chlorine substituted tetraphenylporphyrin-histidine and its zinc(Ⅱ)complexes

As the structural analogues of (bacterio)chlorophylls in photosynthetic organisms, porphyrins play an important role in building up artificial photosynthetic systems[13]. In natural photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes,certain amino acid residuals modulate the reactions ofcharge transfer and energy transfer via coordination andother types of interactions with chlorophyll molecules.For instance, in higher-plant photosynthetic reaction cen-ter PSⅡ, the oxidization-reduction system consistin…
