Sensitizing activity of metal tetraphenylporphines toward diethylaminobenzaldehyde N,N-diphenylhydrazone and its dependence on the central metal atom

摘要

The sensitizing activity of metal (Cu, Co, Ni, Zn, and Ag) tetraphenylporhines (TPPs) toward N,N-diphenylhydrazone of diethylaminobenzaldehyde was studied. It was found that the sensitized photosensitivity essentially depends on the electronic structure of the central metal atom in the TPP molecule: porphyrin complexes with metals that have vacant d or f shells or unpaired electrons (Co, Cu, Ni, and Ag TPPs) do not act as spectral sensitizers for diethylaminobenzaldehyde N,N-diphenylhydrazone.
