They had good water solubility and photostability. Their maximum absorption and maximum emission were 600-700 nm in water. When it was anchored onto nanostructured TiO2 electrode, compared with in water, the squaraine showed double absorption peaks (one blue shifted and another red shifted) and absorption intensity of the red shift peak increased with the increase of the time of irradiation. The intensity of the blue one decreased simultaneously. We proposed that the presence of two electronic charge forms of squaraine anchored on the TiO2 film might be the reason.展开更多

The photophysical properties of these near infrared dyes in various solvents and in SiO2 sol gel were investigated. The results show that the dyes containing cyclohexenylene bridge and N-(p-carboxy)benzyl groups have better photostability and longer absorption wavelength than those containing linear heptamethine bridge and/or N-(5- carboxy)pentanyl groups. The absorption maxima of these dyes are in reverse proportion to the polarity of the solvents. The microenvironment of the dyes in SiO2 sol-gel characters medium polarity (between methanol and DMF) according to the absorption maxima.展开更多
Two novel high valent complexes [M2(III, III)L(μ-OAc)2]·PF6 (M=Mn, Fe; 9) were prepared, where L was the tri-anion of 2,6-bis{[(2-hydroxy-3-(morpholin-4-yl methyl)-5-tert- butyl benzyl)(pyridyl-2-methyl)amino]...Two novel high valent complexes [M2(III, III)L(μ-OAc)2]·PF6 (M=Mn, Fe; 9) were prepared, where L was the tri-anion of 2,6-bis{[(2-hydroxy-3-(morpholin-4-yl methyl)-5-tert- butyl benzyl)(pyridyl-2-methyl)amino]methyl}-4-methyl phenol which contained additional phenolic, tert-butyl and morpholin-4-yl methyl groups compared to its parent [Mn2(II, II)(bpmp) (μ-OAc)2]·ClO4 (10). These improvements decreased the difference between the new model and (Mn)4 cluster (OEC in nature).展开更多
