The possibility to use 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-[-4–2-(3-pentadecylphenoxy)-ethoxy]phenylporphyrin as a chemosensor for the detection of electron acceptors: HCl, TFA and BF3 in solid-phase in the form of thin film on glass carrier plate and in liquid phase in benzene. When chemosensor is under the influence of acceptor, the characteristic changes occur in the position of bands in its UV-VIS spectrum accompanied by the change of system colour. This indicates high sensitivity of porphyrin to action of studied acceptor systems.
