F20TPP and F20TPPCu exhibited strong π-π stacking interactions in DCM, and the intermolecular dimerization constants turned out to be 1.82 × 103 and 17.2 × 103 L·mol-1 respectively. However, extinction coefficients of F15TPC and F15TPCCu at soret band remained unchanged with increasing in their concentrations from 1.0 to 40.0 μmol·L-1, indicating they remained monomeric in DCM solution. Based on DFT calculation and the π-π stacking geometries observed in crystal structures of metal octaethylcorrole complexes, destroy of π-π interactions in F15TPC and F15TPCCu may be understood by the electrostatic potential surfaces (EPS) features of the molecules and steric repulsions caused by the introducing of three phenyl at the meso- positions of corrole macrocycle.展开更多
