Abstract: | The microwave-enhanced synthesis, comparative singlet oxygen sensitization efficiency, and nonlinear optical characterization of a new beta-functionalized porphyrin and its copper complex are described. We show that the introduction of a donor-acceptor push-pull conjugated fragment in the beta position strongly perturbs the porphyrin electronic structure leading to a remarkable one- and two-photon NIR absorption enhancement. |
