SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, SPECTRAL, AGGREGATION AND FLUORESCENCE AND IMPROVED PHOTOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF (ethylsulfanyl) PORPHYRAZINES CONTAINING β-THIOETHER APPENDED [(bpy)2RuCl2]

Abstract

In this study, (ethylsulfanyl) porphyrazines have been modified with one peripheral ruthenium bipyridine groups. These compounds possess (bpy)(2)Ru-II moieties directly attached to the beta position in the (ethylsulfanyl) porphyrazines through thioether chelation. The new compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, H-1-NMR spectroscopy and mass spectra. The spectral properties such as electronic spectra, aggregation and fluorescence of compounds have been studied in THF. Insertion of (bpy)(2)Ru-II moiety on the porphyrazines structure have been investigated photophysical properties of the complexes.
