Fluorescence properties of the dicationic porphyrin 5,15-DiMPyP orderly aggregated along DNA surface†
Abstract
5,15-Bis(4-N-methylpyridyl)-10,20-diphenylporphyrin (5,15-DiMPyP, also known as t-H2Pagg) is capable of forming long-range ordered DNA-templated aggregates in solution. The present work reports the study of fluorescent properties of 5,15-DiMPyP, both monomeric and aggregated in presence of DNA, performed by means of steady-state and
