J-aggregates of 2-hydroquinone-5,10,15,20-tetra(p-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin (HQTHPP) induced by N-lauroyl sarcosine (SKL) in aqueous neutral solutions have been studied by optical absorption, fluorescence, and resonance light-scattering spectroscopies. As SKL concentration increases, the spectra evolve to reveal the presence of four independent species with relative concentration. The most important species is J-aggregates. The J-aggregates have two strong exciton bands corresponding to the B-band and Q-bands of HQTHPP monomers, and are found to be stable when the surfactant concentration is below 8.0 mmol/L. But above 8.0 mmol/L, the J-aggregates dissolve gradually into another species: porphyrin monomers. The total fluorescence of HQTHPP is quenched due to the aggregate formation. A strong and sharply peaked resonance light-scattering signal (>1800 counts/s, centered at 490 nm) is observed just slightly to the red of the J-aggregate absorption maximum. In the case of cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide, increasing surfactant concentrations have only shown to favor solubilization of porphyrin monomers. Evidently, the nature of polar headgroups of surfactants influences the tendency of THPP to aggregate.
