Heteroaggregates composed of cationic porphyrin, meso-tetra(p-trimethylamino)-porphyrin iodide, its zinc complex and anionic phthalocyanine sodium hydroxygallium 4,4’,4',4'’-tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine ha...Heteroaggregates composed of cationic porphyrin, meso-tetra(p-trimethylamino)-porphyrin iodide, its zinc complex and anionic phthalocyanine sodium hydroxygallium 4,4’,4',4'’-tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine have been investigated by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. It has been found that both free base cationic porphyrin and its zinc complex can form very stable heterodimers with anionic phthalocyanine in water, methanol and dhnethylfonnamide. The stability of the aggregate depends on the polarity as well as the ligation ability of the solvent. No evidence of higher aggregates was detected. Besides axial coordination, steric hindrance which influence the relative orientation of the macrocycles are considered.展开更多
