Electronic structure of low-spin ferric chlorins: characterization of bis(1-methylimidazole)(meso-tetraphenylchlorinato)iron(iii) triflate
Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of the trifluoromethanesulfonato derivative of bis(1-methylimidazole)tetrakis(phenyl)chlorinatoiron(III)
[Fe(TPC)(1-MeIm)2]CF3SO31 are reported. The crystal structure of complex 1 has been determined. The X-ray structure shows that the porphyrinate rings are weakly distorted. The metal–
