摘要
Resonance Raman spectra of aggregated meso-tetra(4-pyridinium)porphyrin diacid (H8TPyP^6+) were studied with excitation near the exciton absorption bands of 470 nm. The UV-Vis absorption and resonance light scattering spectra of HsTPyP^6+ monomers and aggregates were also measured. The observed Raman bands of monomeric and aggregated HsTPyP^6+ were assigned on the basis of the observed deuteration shifts and by comparing with the Raman spectra of analogous porphyrin diacids. Aggregation causes moderate downshifts (2-6 cm^-1) for high-frequency modes involving the in-plane CC/CN stretches of the porphyrin core and a dramatic upshift (12 cm^-1) for the out-of-plane saddling mode of the porphyrin ring. The structural changes induced by aggregation and the possible hydrogen bonding interaction between the HsTPyP^6+ molecules in the aggregate are discussed based on the spectral observations.
