Hydroxo(tetramesitylporphinato)iron(III) in degassed benzene, toluene, and ethylbenzene is confirmed to be reduced to the four coordinate ferrous complex upon irradiation with light λ > 300 nm.Production of diphenyl and solvent dependence of photoreduction rates support the concurrent generation of hydroxyl radical along with the ferrous complex production.

The chemistry of several iron(III) porphyrinates containing silanethiolate ligands is described. The complexes are prepared by protonolysis reactions of silanethiols with the iron(III) precursors, [Fe(OMe)(TPP)] and [Fe(OH)(H 2O)(TMP)] (TPP = dianion of meso-tetraphenylporphine; TMP = dianion of meso-tetramesitylporphine). Each of the compounds has been fully characterized in solution and the solid state. The stability of the silanethiolate complexes versus other iron(III) porphyrinate complexes containing sulfur-based ligands allows for an examination of their reactivity with several biologically relevant small molecules including H2S, NO, and 1-methylimidazole. Electrochemically, the silanethiolate complexes display a quasi-reversible one-electron oxidation event at potentials higher than that observed for an analogous arenethiolate complex. The behavior of these complexes versus other sulfur-ligated iron(III) porphyrinates is discussed.
Preparation, characterization, and reactions of novel iron(III) porphyrin dication complexes

A dication complex of (meso-tetramesitylporphynato)iron(III) (FeIIITMP) has been prepared by the reaction of FeIIITMP N-oxide with trifluoroacetic acid in toluene at low temperature. The electronic structure of the complex is characterized to be ferric high spin with rhombic symmetry on the basis of iodometric titration and UV-vis, 2H NMR, and EPR spcctroscopies. A value of E/D, which shows rhombicity of the heme environment, was estimated to be 0.29 by EPR measurement. An unusually high E/D value indicates that the symmetry of the ligand field around the iron is rather similar to those of nonheme ferric complexes, and the porphyrin ring could exhibit large nonplanarity. While tetraphenylporphyrin dication complexes of Zn, Mg, and Ni are known to react with methanol to afford the corresponding isoporphyrins, the dication complex of FeIIITMP was found to react with methanol to yield FeIIITMP N-methoxide, possibly due to the sterric barrier of the o-methyl groups of mesitylene. The FeIIITMP dication is not thermally stable and is readily reduced to the FeIIITMP π-cation radical even at -25 °C in toluene. The dication complex of (meso-tetrakis(2,6-dichlorophenyl)porphynato)iron(III) (FeIIITDCPP) was also prepared by the same reaction. The preparation of the dication complex of Fe(III) porphyrin demonstrates possible manipulation of the two-electron-oxidized equivalent in various forms by Fe porphyrin, i.e., the O=Fe(IV) porphyrin π-cation radical, O=Fe(V) porphyrin, Fe(III) porphyrin N-oxide, and the Fe(III) porphyrin dication.
