Abstract:

Four structurally bent porphyrin(2.1.2.1) Pt(II) complexes have been obtained and verified well. Main absorbance of Pt(II) porphyrin(2.1.2.1) displayed a significant red-shift compared to that of porphyrin(1.1.1.1) Pt(II) molecules. ¹O₂ study indicated that electron-withdrawing group and intramolecular charge transfer effect synergistically endowed Pt(II) porphyrin(2.1.2.1) with good singlet oxygen-sensitizing capacity under blue LED light irradiation. This work presents a simple synthesis way to develop a new series of efficient porphyrinoid singlet oxygen photosensitizers for PDT through molecular engineering.
