Abstract

Four new non-planar and non-aromatic porphyrin organopalladium complexes were synthesized. Conformational structures and optical and electronic properties of the obtained organopalladium complexes containing meso-substituted phenyl, p-tert-butylphenyl, or pentafluorophenyl groups were fully investigated. These complexes showed potent capacity for singlet oxygen (1O2) generation under blue-light irradiation, and the 1O2 quantum yields were in the range of 41%-56%, which were comparable to that of Ru(bpy)3Cl2 (57%), and such potency made these organopalladium complexes potential 1O2 photo sensitizers for photodynamic therapy.
