Spectroscopic Characterization of Porphyrins Entraped in Sol-gel Silica Matrix Joanna Dargiewicz-Nowicka, Magdalena Makarska, Stanisław Radzki Department of Inorganic Chemistry Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin
Porphyrin importance 1.Porphyrins and their derivatives are widely applied in analytical chemistry. They can be used for analysis of cations, anions, organic compounds and gases. Methods are mostly based on porphyrin spectral and electrochemical properties. 2. Energy transfer systems (solar energy, PDT). 3. Possibility of the entrapment of organic reagents into sol-gel monolithic matrices and thin coatings. A new unique hybrid material (mixed organic and inorganic compounds) can be applied in chemo- and biosensors.

Sol-gel method
Sol-gel method advantages 1.Material homogenization. 2.High purity. 3.Mixing in the atomic scale of the various compounds. 4.Good control over surface or powder size. Conclusion 1. Synthesis of the EuTMePyP(acac) complex not earlier described in the literature. 2. No fluorescence in solution. 3. Strong fluorescence emission in hydrogel, probabely due to the „axial ligand exchange” or silica-Eu(III) reaction.
