The S0, T1 and S1 Raman spectra of bacteriochlorophyll a, bacteriopheophytin a and chlorophyll a were recorded for the species of natural abundance isotopic composition and those of totally substituted with 15N, 13C and 2H isotopes. Based on empirical assignments of the Raman lines, changes in the bond orders in the macrocycle upon triplet and singlet excitation are discussed.

The review summarizes the synthesis and study of properties of the bioconjugates of chlorophyll a and bacteriochlorophyll a with carbohydrates, carboranes and other moieties, focusing on the synthetic methods of obtaining conjugates and preliminary biological testing thereof. Boronated chlorins and bacteriochlorins can be used in both photodynamic and boron neutron capture therapy.

AbstractNeutron small-angle scattering measurements of several different chlorophylls hydrated in deuterated octane-toluene mixtures show that long, hollow cylinders of aggregated chlorophyll are formed. Clear secondary maxima are present in the scattering, and the cylinder diameters are well determined, but depend on the type of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll-a and Bacteriochlorophyll-a were particularly studied, and several samples of each have been measured. Other chlorophylls have also been studied. The results provide strong evidence that chlorophyll cylinders are only certain sizes, with diameters very nearly in the ratio of small integers. Thus, the cylinder diameters appear to be quantized. Neutron scattering results that further test this quantization property are presented here, together with a proposal for the stereochemical features of chlorophyll aggregation which account for the diameter quantization.
