Monomeric and dimeric chlorophyll a derivatives were studied by diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) method. It has been shown that DOSY method allows to detect a change of molecular dimensions corresponding to the transition from monomeric to dimeric porphyrin. However, the variation value of these changes depends on the nature of substituents at the macrocycle periphery. So when estimating the molecular weight of studied derivative it is necessary to compare the diffusion characteristics with compounds of known masses and similar substituents system in the macrocycle.
