Four porphyrinic ionic liquids and four higher melting salts (>100 degrees C) were synthesized as potential photosensitizers from highly symmetric porphyrins by introducing alkyl chains and exchanging anions to tune their solubility and singlet oxygen generation capability. Among the synthesized compounds was 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-dodecylpyridinum)porphyrin tetrakis-bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-amide, a room-temperature ionic liquid that could be crystallized as a solvate with nitrobenzene.
