Electrochemical characterization of iron porphyrin complexes in aprotic solvents

Abstract: Fe(lll) porphyrin complexes of pyridine, substituted pyridines, and other complexing agents have been made in dimethylsulfoxide and W,W-dimethylacetamlde. The mechanisms of the redox reactions found by cyclic voltammetry are reported. The E1/2 of a redox couple of Fe(lll) porphyrins depended on the pKa of the ligand. Ion pair formation was found in some cases, especially without added axial ligand.

“…Since the ability to bind molecular oxygen depends, at least in part, on the redox potential (18) this procedure permits the design of systems capable of reversibly binding oxygen. Whilst it seems that the redox potentials of iron porphyrins are less sensitive to the environment than those of iron phthalocyanine, dramatic changes can still be observed (23). Thus the 'tuning' mechanism may have a biological role through, for example, protein bound groups moving closer to, and further away from, the metal ion, with conformational change.…”

“…Although DMSO and DMF strongly solvate iron porphyrins (as judged by solubility characteristics), the iron porphyrins are considered to be closely associated with or bound to a counterion such as chloride or perchlorate (26). Iron porphyrins are not very (8). Thus in nonaqueous solutions using platinum electrodes, an iron porphyrin can be reduced in three oneelectron steps each of which is essentially reversible.…”
