- Description: The synthesis and characterization of 2,9,16,23-chloro-3,10,17,24-triethyleneoxysulphanylphthalocyaninato zinc(II) (CTESZnPc) is described. The photophysics and photochemistry of CTESZnPc and those of tetrakis(triethyleneoxysulphanyl)zinc phthalocyanine (TTESZnPc) and octakis(triethyleneoxysulphanyl)zinc phthalocyanine (OTESZnPc), are presented and compared with those of unsubstituted zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc). The presence of triethyleneoxysulphanyl substituents on the ZnPc ring gave rise to higher values of singlet oxygen (ΦΔ) and photodegradation (ΦPd) quantum yields in DMF. However, TTESZnPc, OTESZnPc and CTESZnPc are less fluorescent than ZnPc, judging from their fluorescence quantum yield (ΦF) values. Fluorescence was lower in toluene than in DMF due to aggregation in the former solvent. Triplet quantum yield (ΦT) values were found to increase with the presence of substituents on the ZnPc ring, while triplet lifetimes (τT) were found to vary linearly with the logarithms of solvent viscosities. The fluorescences of the substituted ZnPc complexes were effectively quenched by benzoquinone (BQ), and the quenching data analyzed by the Stern–Volmer equation. The Stern–Volmer constants and the diffusion-controlled bimolecular rate constants were calculated.

- Description: Synthesis of the water soluble zinc phthalocyanines (3, 4) obtained from the phthalonitriles substituted with oligo(ethyleneoxy)thia groups are described. The new compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, including HSQC, HMBC and COSY bidimensional correlation techniques, electronic spectroscopy and mass spectra. The aggregation behaviour of the phthalocyanine compounds (3, 4) was investigated using UV–vis spectroscopy in dimethylsulphoxide. Photochemical and photophysical measurements were conducted on oligo(ethyleneoxy)thia appended zinc phthalocyanines. General trends are described for quantum yields of photodegredation, fluorescence yields, triplet lifetimes and triplet quantum yields as well as singlet oxygen quantum yields of these compounds. The phototoxicity against cancer cells of the new compounds was investigated during several in vitro experiments. The dye-sensitized photooxidation of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofurane via 1O2 was studied in dimethylsulphoxide.

- Description: The synthesis, photophysical and photochemical properties of tetra- and chlorotetrapoly(oxyethylene)-substituted oxotitanium(IV) phthalocyanines are reported for the first time. The new compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, electronic spectroscopy and mass spectra. These complexes showed monomeric behaviour in solution. General trends are described for photodegredation, singlet oxygen, triplet state and fluorescence quantum yields, and triplet and fluorescence lifetimes of these compounds in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Photophysical and photochemical properties of phthalocyanine complexes are very useful for PDT applications. The complexes showed high triplet quantum yields and triplet lifetimes in DMSO. The singlet oxygen quantum yields (ΦΔ), which give an indication of the potential of the complexes as photosensitizers in applications where singlet oxygen is required (Type II mechanism), were 0.72 and 0.78 for 3a and 5a, respectively. Thus, these complexes show potential as Type II photosensitizers. These complexes were also quenched by benzoquinone for fluorescence quenching studies.
