- Abstract
On the basis of spectral‐luminescent investigations it is shown that the introduction of an additional hexatomic imidic ring into the chlorin p6 derivatives substantially shifts the absorption bands to the longwave spectral region but causes no decrease in the fluorescence quantum yield, i.e., it is not accompanied by an increase in the nonradiative deactivation rate of the excited singlet state S1. It follows from quantum‐chemical calculations and also from the experimental data that the presence of this cycle in free bases results in the extension of the conjugated bond system and in the reduction of the singlet–triplet interval ΔE(S1–T1) as compared to chlorin p6. In contrast to the majority of earlier investigated porphyrins and chlorins, the introduction of the central ion Zn into the chlorin p6 cycloimide derivative causes an increase in the quantum yield of fluorescence, lowering of the energy of the excited triplet state T1, and a noticeable (by ∼600 cm-1) increase in the ΔE(S1–T1) interval in comparison with the corresponding free bases. The data obtained are associated with the characteristic features of the extension of conjugated bond systems for the free bases of cycloimidoderivatives of chlorin p6 (22‐membered cyclic polyene) and of their Zn complexes (20‐membered cyclic polyene).
