The effect of molecular structure of chlorin photosensitizers on photo-bleaching of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran—the possible evidence of iodine reactive species formation by Kustov, Andrey, Morshnev, Philipp, Kukushkina, Natal’ya, Krestyaninov, Mikhail, Smirnova, Nataliya, Berezin, Dmitry, Kokurina, Galina, Belykh, Dmitry

“…In this short communication, we focus on the ability of chlorin e$_{6}$ photosensitizers (PSs) with one, two or three cationic groups to generate singlet oxygen species ($^{1}$O$_{2}$) in an apolar model medium, viz. 1-octanol (OctOH). The quantum yield of $^{1}$O$_{2}$ ($\Phi _{\Delta }$) is determined indirectly by the chemical method for seven synthesized PSs using 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) as a singlet oxygen trap. …”
