Conclusions
-
1.
The irradiation of frozen solutions of zinc and magnesium porphyrins in ethanol or triethylamine containing CCl4 with light, which overlaps the absorption bands of the pigments and their cation-radicals, leads to the photocatalytic decomposition of CCl4 molecules and the matrix and to a change in the spatial distribution of the acceptor particles in the vicinity of the metal porphyrin molecules.
-
2.
The metal-porphyrin-sensitized transfer of an electron from molecules of the matrix to CCl4 can be realized both according to a mechanism in which an electron is transferred from an electronically excited pigment molecule to the acceptor (alcoholic solutions of the pigments) and through an intermediate stage in which an anion-radical of the metal porphyrin and a cation-radical of a solvent molecule (solutions of pigments in triethylamine) are formed.
