Background: Tetraphenylporphine (TPP) is a specialty chemical that has found a wide variety of uses in chemistry including use in the photooxygenation of complex organic compounds,¹ preparation of thin films for the study of nanophysics, ² functionalization of nanotubules,³ and the study of membrane properties and physical properties^{. 4} In the presence of other photoactive agents TPP can extend wavelengths improving photocatalytic efficiency and opticoelectronic properties in nanocomposites, ⁵ and organize molecular self-assemblies in nanoparticles.⁶

TPP can also act as HCl sensor composites on solid surfaces,⁷ can detect chirality in pharmaceutical analytes,⁸ and determine the formation of aggregates in photophysical studies.⁹
