研究目的
Investigating the photophysical properties of nitrated and halogenated phosphorus tritolylcorrole complexes for their potential use as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy.
研究成果
The study provides a detailed theoretical analysis of the photophysical properties of nitrated and halogenated phosphorus tritolylcorrole complexes, highlighting their potential as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy. The presence of peripheral halogens, especially iodine, significantly affects the photophysical properties, including absorption spectra and spin-orbit couplings, making these complexes promising candidates for further investigation in photodynamic therapy applications.
研究不足
The study is theoretical and relies on computational models, which may not fully capture all experimental conditions or effects. The focus on specific nitrated and halogenated phosphorus tritolylcorrole complexes may limit the generalizability of the findings to other systems.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Density functional theory (DFT) and its time-dependent density functional linear response formulation (TDDFT) were employed for geometry optimizations and calculations of vertical excitation energies. The B3LYP exchange and correlation functional coupled with the 6-31G* basis sets were used for all atoms except iodine, for which the SDD pseudopotential was employed. Solvent effects were included using the non-equilibrium implementation of the polarizable continuum model, considering dichloromethane as the solvent.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study focused on a series of nitrated and halogenated phosphorus tritolylcorrole complexes.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Gaussian09 code for DFT and TDDFT calculations, Dalton code for spin-orbit matrix elements calculations.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Ground and excited state optimizations were performed, followed by calculations of the lowest twenty vertical excitation energies. Spin-orbit matrix elements were computed using the quadratic-response TDDFT approach.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The photophysical properties analyzed included absorption spectra, energy gaps between excited singlet and triplet states, and spin-orbit couplings for possible intersystem crossing channels.
