Abstract
The association of γ-mono- and 6,γ-dimethyl ethers of chlorin e6 (I and II) in mixtures of a phosphate buffer and ethanol is studied. The number of molecules in associates and the dimerization constants are determined. The formation of the dimers of compound I and dimers and associates of a higher order for II is established. It is found that, unlike I, the shift of the Q absorption band of the dimer toward larger wavelengths is rather great as compared to the monomer band for II; it exceeds 30 nm, which is uncommon for porphyrins. This difference of spectral changes in association of I and II is attributed to the dissimilar character of interaction of their molecules with each other and with the molecules of the surroundings, and also to the structural features of the dimers.
