A novel pH-controlled transfer process of 5,10,15-tri(4-hydroxyphenyl)-20-(4-hexadecyloxyphenyl) porphyrin in CTAB micelles
By analysis of the UV-visible and fluorescence spectra of 5,10,15-tri(4-hydroxyphenyl)-20-(4-hexadecyloxyphenyl)porphyrin (P) in different microenvironments of micelle and solvent solutions, a novel pH-controlled transfer process of P in CTAB micelle was reported. In neutral CTAB micelles, porphyrins may locate at the inner layers of micelles. With pH increases to 11.19, the porphyrin can be completely deprotonated and transfers to the outer surface of CTAB micelle. The investigation of kinetics of porphyrin complexing with Cu(II) indicates that the metallation rate of porphyrins in CTAB micelles could also be controlled by changing pH.
