Abstract:Tetrapyrrole rings possess four nitrogen atoms, two of which act as Br?ndsted bases in acidic media. The two protonation steps occur on a close pH range, particularly in the case of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) derivatives. If the cause of this phenomenon is well known--a protonation-induced distortion of the porphyrin ring--data on stepwise protonation constants and on electronic absorption spectra of monoprotonated TPPs are sparse. A multivariate approach has been systematically applied to a series of glycoconjugated and hydroxylated TPPs, potential anticancer drugs usable in Photodynamic Therapy. The dual purpose was determination of protonation constants and linking substitution with basicity. Hard-modeling version of MCR-ALS (Multivariate Curve Resolution Alternating Least Squares) has given access to spectra and distribution profile of pure components. Spectra of monoprotonated species (H(3)TPP(+)) in solution resemble those of diprotonated species (H(4)TPP(2+)), mainly differing by a slight blue-shift of bands. Overlap of H(3)TPP(+) and H(4)TPP(2+) spectra reinforces the difficulty to evidence an intermediate form only present in low relative abundance. Depending on macrocycle substitution, pK values ranged from 3.5±0.1 to 5.1±0.1 for the first protonation and from 3.2±0.2 to 4.9±0.1 for the second one. Inner nitrogens' basicity is affected by position, number and nature of peripheral substituents depending on their electrodonating character. pK values have been used to establish a predictive Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) model, relying on atom-type electrotopological indices. This model accurately describes our results and should be applied to new TPP derivatives in a drug-design perspective.
