10-(2-Hydroxylphenyl)-5,15-bis(pentafluorophenyl) corrole([STHZ]1) was found to have a remarkable photocytotoxicity on nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) cell line(Chang C.K.et al.,Proc SPIE,2006,Vol.6139,p268).To explore ...10-(2-Hydroxylphenyl)-5,15-bis(pentafluorophenyl) corrole([STHZ]1) was found to have a remarkable photocytotoxicity on nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) cell line(Chang C.K.et al.,Proc SPIE,2006,Vol.6139,p268).To explore the heavy-atom effect on corrole photosensitizer,an exact analogue of corole [STHZ]1[STBZ] with the modification of two heavy iodine atoms on its 10-phenyl group,10-(2-hydroxyl-3,5-diiodophenyl)-5,15-bis(pentafluorophenyl)corrole(2),were synthesized.Surprisingly,the photocytoxicity of corrole 2 on NPC cell dropped sharply as compared to corole 1.It exhibited no significant PDT cytotoxicity even if its concentration reached 2 μmol/L.This may be caused by the lowering of its singlet oxygen quantum yield in PDT, although the intersystem crossing of corrole 2 could be enhanced by iodine heavy-atom effect as indicated by the strong decrease of its fluorescence emission.展开更多

Aggregation behavior of 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (F15TPC), 5,10,15,20-tetra(pentafluoroph-enyl)porphyrin (F20TPP), and their copper complexes in DCM solution were investigated by using UV-Vis spectro-sco...Aggregation behavior of 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (F15TPC), 5,10,15,20-tetra(pentafluoroph-enyl)porphyrin (F20TPP), and their copper complexes in DCM solution were investigated by using UV-Vis spectro-scopic method. F20TPP and F20TPPCu exhibited strong π-π stacking interactions in DCM, and the intermolecular dimerization constants turned out to be 1.82 × 103 and 17.2 × 103 L·mol-1 respectively. However, extinction coefficients of F15TPC and F15TPCCu at soret band remained unchanged with increasing in their concentrations from 1.0 to 40.0 μmol·L-1, indicating they remained monomeric in DCM solution. Based on DFT calculation and the π-π stacking geometries observed in crystal structures of metal octaethylcorrole complexes, destroy of π-π interactions in F15TPC and F15TPCCu may be understood by the electrostatic potential surfaces (EPS) features of the molecules and steric repulsions caused by the introducing of three phenyl at the meso- positions of corrole macrocycle.展开更多
The second-order nonlinear optical （NLO） properties of 5,10,15-triphenylcorrole （TPC）, 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin （TPP） and L-amino acid bridged bis-corroles 1,2,3 and 4 have been calculated by using TDHF/P...The second-order nonlinear optical （NLO） properties of 5,10,15-triphenylcorrole （TPC）, 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin （TPP） and L-amino acid bridged bis-corroles 1,2,3 and 4 have been calculated by using TDHF/PM3 method based on the RHF/6-31G （TPC and TPP） or semiempirical PM3 （1, 2, 3, 4） optimized geometries. Calculation results showed TPC and TPP have C1 and D2h symmetry, respectively when N-H protons are localized on the nitrogen atoms. TPC is the second-order NLO active chromophore due to the cancellation of centrosymmetrical structure and its first hyperpolarizability β increases to 11.524×10^-30 esu. Under electrical dipole approximation, βvalues of bis-corroles 1, 2, 3 and 4 vary from 9.831×10^-30 to 14.221×10^-30 esu, and no much improvement in the first hyperpolarizability was observed as compared to TPC monomer.However, β values of bis-corroles 1, 2, 3 and 4 are improved by about 4 times as compared to their bis-porphyrin counterparts. The analysis of β components indicates that β of this kind of bis-corroles is mainly contributed from its radial component βr. With the variation of amino acid side chains, βHRS, β,βxyz, βr and βa of bis-corroles change remarkably. Chiral L-amino acid bridged bis-corroles 2, 3 and 4 have a right-handed helix structure, and their chiral component βxyz matches βxyz ∝ r^2 ζ/L^4 （helix parameters）, showing the second-order chiral NLO response of these bis-corroles could be described by one-electron helical model theory. It was found that the radial component βr of chiral helix bis-corroles also matches βr ∝ r^2 ζ/L^4.展开更多
