Abstract: Polarized resonance Raman spectra of J-aggregated tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin diacid (H42+TSPP) were reported. In addition, resonance Raman spectra of molec-ular state H2+4TSPP and the free base H2TSPP were also recorded for comparison. The observed Raman bands of the aggregates were assigned based on their isotopic shifts upon deuteration. The low frequency bands at 81, 119 and 141cm-1were assigned to intermolecular lattice modes. The structure alteration of H42+TSPP induced by the aggregation was evaluated by comparing the resonance Raman spectra of the aggregated H42+TSPP with those of the molecular state H42+TSPP. It was deduced that H42+TSPP in the aggregates is arranged in a face to face manner.
