Abstract
The interactions of nonionic meso-tetra(p-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin (THPP) with CX3COOH (X = F, Cl, Br) in Triton X-100 (TX) micellar solution have been investigated by optical absorption, resonance light-scattering, and fluorescence spectroscopies. The double red-shifted absorption bands and strong resonance light scattering (RLS) signal imply that the assemblies induced by trihalo acetic acids belong to J-aggregates. The fluorescence of porphyrin is quenched due to the aggregate formation. The kinetics of assemblies trigged by CBr3COOH is studied via stopped-flow techniques. No characteristics of autocatalyzed reactions are observed, and there is only a log phase. The nature of the exciton coupling of transition dipole moment can be systematically changed by the haloid substituents of the organic counteranion.
