- Description: Tris[(4-(pyridin-4-ylthio)-2-thio-4-methylthiazol-5-yl)acetic acid phthalocyaninato] zinc (II) (3) was covalently linked to and doped onto SiNPs. An increase in triplet quantum yields for 3-SiNPs (linked) with decreasing lifetimes was observed. For 3-SiNPs (doped) there was a decrease in both the triplet quantum yield and lifetimes when compared to 3 alone. There was an increase in singlet oxygen quantum yields for 3-SiNPs (linked) compared to 3 from 0.67 to 0.80, while there was a decrease for 3-SiNPs (doped) to 0.25.

- Description: Herein we report on the photophysicochemical properties of neutral, positively and negatively charged metallophthalocyanines (MPcs) when doped onto silica nanoparticles. The MPcs are: unsubstituted ZnPc (complex 1, neutral), Zn tetraaminophenoxy phthalocyanine (ZnTAPhPc, complex 2, neutral), tetrakis[4-(iodo-N-methylpyridinium)thio] phthalocyanine (ZnTMPyPc, complex 3, cationic), and Zn tetra sulfophenoxy phthalocyanine (ZnTSPhPc, complex 4, anionic). Following doping onto SiNPs, the triplet quantum yields increased for neutral complex 1 and positively charged complex 3. However, singlet oxygen quantum yields increased for positively charged 3 (in 3-SiNPs) and the negatively charge 4 (in 4-SiNPs) and not for complex 1 (in 1-SiNPs), compared to Pcs alone, due to the screening effect.
