This study aimed to characterize the interpretive processes that unfold for parents. We employed longitudinal interviews with 19 families engaged in a community-based multi-stage screening protocol. Parents participated in 1-6 interviews dependent upon children's length of engagement in the screening protocol; data were analyzed through modified grounded theory. Parents who moved towards understanding their child's behaviors as ASD expressed (1) sensitization to ASD symptoms, (2) differentiation from other developmental conditions, and (3) use of the ASD diagnosis to explain the etiology of concerning behaviors. Identifying interpretive processes involved during ASD screening provides new opportunities for shared decision-making.Zn(II)-octa-(4-chlorophenyl)- and Zn(II)-octa-(4-bromophenyl)tetraazaporphyrins were synthesized by the reaction of cyclotetramerization of di-(4-chlorophenyl)- and di-(4-bromophenyl)maleonitriles with zinc(II) chloride. The obtained compounds were identified by UV-vis, IR, NMR 1H spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Geometry optimization of the series of halogenated Zn(II)-octaaryltetraazaporphyrins was performed using the density functional method with the BP86 functional and the def2-TZVP basis set. An analysis of the distribution of molecular orbital energies in the neighborhood of highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and HOMO-1) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMO and LUMO+1) and the width of the HOMO - LUMO energy gaps (EH-L) was performed for the studied compounds. Fluorimetric measurements of the Zn(II)-octaphenyltetraazaporphyrins in toluene were carried out and fluorescence quantum yields of studied compounds were determined and analyzed. It has been shown that the halogen on the para-position of the phenyl groups significantly
