Heterobimetallic complexes of cobalt(IV) porphyrin-corrole dyads. Synthesis, physicochemical properties, and X-ray structural characterization.
The synthesis of a novel family of heterobinuclear cofacial biphenylene (B), anthracene (A), 9,9-dimethylxanthene (X), or dibenzofuran (O) bridged porphyrin-corrole complexes, (PCY)MClCoCl, is reported, M being either an iron(III) or manganese(III) ion. Each complex was characterized by electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, UV-vis, IR, and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Unlike previously examined biscobalt porphyrin-corrole dyads, the cobalt ion of the corrole moiety is present in a high-valence +4 oxidation state, as proven by electrochemistry, spectroelectrochemistry, and an X-ray diffraction study of (PCB)FeClCoCl, which shows the presence of a bound Cl- anion on the cobalt corrole. Structural data: (PCB)FeClCoCl x 0.5(C7H16) x 0.5(CH2Cl2) x 2H2O, triclinic, space group P1, a = 13.8463(3) A, b = 16.8164(5) A, c = 17.9072(6) A, alpha = 93.780(1) degrees, beta = 111.143(1) degrees, gamma = 97.463(2) degrees, Z = 2.
