Complexes produced by associated forms of porphyrin bound with hydrophobic-hydrophilic copolymer and transition metal ions.

Properties of protonated dimeric forms of meso-tetraphenylporphine (TPP) and meso-tetra(p-aminophenyl)porphine (TAPP) bound with copolymer and also complexes produced by associated TAPP bound with copolymer, Mn2+, and Fe3+ are investigated by absorption, luminescence, and Raman spectroscopy. According to absorption spectra of protonated dimers of TPP, three dimeric forms of the porphyrin are observed in the ground state. However, selective excitation of these forms according to the fluorescence spectra reveals only two dimeric forms in the excited state.

Transition metal ion complexes with associates of porphyrin bound to a hydrophobic-hydrophilic copolymer.

The interaction of dimeric forms of meso-tetraphenylporphine with Mn2+ as well as the interaction of associated forms of meso-tetra(p-aminophenyl)porphine bound to a hydrophobic-hydrophilic copolymer with Mn2+ and Fe3+ were studied by absorption, luminescence, Raman, and EPR spectroscopies. Both dimeric and associated forms of these porphyrins produced Mn2+ complexes. Manganese ions in these complexes undergo clusterization, which is accompanied by transformation of the six-line EPR signal of Mn2+ into a broad single-line signal.
