Adducts of free-base meso-tetraarylporphyrins with trihaloacetic acids: Structure and photostability
Abstract Four diverse meso-tetraarylporphyrins in the form of diprotonated adducts with trifluoro-, trichloro-, tribromoacetic acids and acetic acid were investigated in benzene solution. Despite similar structural distortion of the chromophore system due to protonation, the respective adducts demonstrated different photostability when exposed to UV irradiation. The trifluoro- and trichloroacetic adducts, and the acetic acid one, showed some common features both molecular and in the mechanism of photodegradation. However, the tribromo-derivative decayed according to a different kinetic scheme, revealing a considerable impact of the bromine atoms upon the pyrrole units of the porphyrin macro…
