The iron(II) porphyrinogen dication, [LΔΔFe II]2+, is a multielectron oxidant featuring the metal center in its reduced state and the ligand as the redox reservoir. Oxidations break the ligand's redox-active C-C bonds. Extremely short-lived excited states are consistent with extensive structural reorganization that accompanies charge-transfer excitation of the porphyrinogen.
