Cuprous bis-phenanthroline compounds possess metal-to-ligand charge transfer, MLCT,
excited states. Phenanthroline ligands coordinated to Cu (I) that are disubstituted in the 2 …

▪ Abstract Molecular structures during chemical processes are crucial for predicting
molecular reactivity and reaction mechanisms. Using a laser pulse as an internal clock for …

A library of new fluorescent molecular rotors (FMRs) for viscosity sensing was synthesized.
The sensitivity of the fluorescence emission toward solvent viscosity and polarity was …

Cationic porphyrins based on the 5, 10, 15, 20-meso-(tetrakis-4-N-methylpyridyl) core
(TMPyP4) have been studied extensively over many years due to their strong interactions …

Recent advances in the use of transient absorption (TA) and time-resolved vibrational
spectroscopies (TRIR and TR 3) to study both excited states and reaction intermediates in …

For a series of copper (II) porphyrins, we report EPR data from solid solutions as well as E 0
values for the first ring oxidation, emission spectra, and luminescence lifetimes in methylene …

Porphyrins and metalloporphyrins are strong DNA binders. Some of these compounds have
been used for radiation sensitization therapy of cancer and are targeted to interact with …

Vibrational Raman spectroscopy is now widely recognized as a useful technique for
chemical analysis. It has become increasingly popular for the characterization of stable …

The interaction of diethylstilbestrol (DES) with calf thymus DNA was investigated at
physiological pH with drug/DNA (phosphate) molar ratios (r) of 1: 40, 1: 20, 1: 10, 1: 4, 1: 2 …

Porphyrins and their metal derivatives are strong DNA binders with association constants of
