On the other hand, the fluorescence of parent porphyrins in ZnPC2bpy+(3), ZnPC2bpy+(4), and ZnPC8bpy+ (3) was partly quenched in such coordinating solvents as N,N-dimethylformamide and pyridine. However, only the fluorescence of the parent porphyrin in ZnPC2bpy+(2) was effectively quenched, even in coordinating solvents. The hydrophobic interaction between the porphyrin ring and bpy+ in ZnPC2bpy+(2) may be considerably large, for bpy+ in ZnPC2bpy+(2) is covalently linked to the ortho position of the phenyl group in ZnTPP, (TPP 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin), by a short chain. The emission was effectively quenched by the photoinduced electron transfer from the porphyrin ring to bpy+, because the axial coordination or the hydrophobic interaction gave bpy+ access to the porphyrin ring.}, pages = {3069--3074}, title = {The Fluorescence Quenching of Zinc Porphyrins with the ω-[4-(4-Pyridyl)pyridinio]alkyl Group}, volume = {62}, year = {1989} }
