pH-Induced Interconversion between J-Aggregates and H-Aggregates of 5,10,15,20-Tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin in Polyelectrolyte Multilayer Films

Abstract: We fabricated a layer-by-layer (LbL) film composed of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS) and poly(allylamine) (PAA) and investigated its pH response by UV-visible spectrometry. When the (PAA/TPPS)5PAA film was immersed in a pH 1.5 solution, J-aggregate bands were observed at 484 and 691 nm. Above pH 3.0, the J-aggregates were completely dissociated and an H-aggregate band was observed at 405 nm. The interconversion between the J-aggregates and H-aggregates in the LbL film was repeatable and… Show more

“…These zwitterionic forms have a tendency to form J-aggregates which show a red shifted Soret band with respect to the monomer's ones [23]. However in this work no evidence of aggregation was found for studied concentration of TPPS (1.710 -6 mol.dm -3 ) at different solvent mixture.…”

“…A further pH-sensitive LbL film was constructed using 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)-porphyrin (TPPS) and PAH. 95 TPPS formed J-aggregates in the film at pH 1.5, and H-aggregated TPPS was formed at pH 3.0 or higher. The interconversion between J-and H-aggregates in the film was associated with changes in the absorption spectra; the H-aggregate showed an absorption maximum at 405 nm, whereas absorption maxima at 484 and 691 nm were observed for the J-aggregate.…”
