Reactions of nitric oxide with cobalt(II) tetraphenylporphyrin: a unique bis nitric oxide complex
Abstract
(Nitric oxide) tetraphenylporphyrincobalt, [Co(TPP)(NO)], is found to add nitric oxide sequentially to form an S= 1/2 complex [Co(TPP)(NO)2] and a diamagnetic species tentatively formulated as [Co(TPP)(NO)(N2O2)].
