title: *NO2-mediated meso-hydroxylation of iron(III) porphyrin.
abstract: (*)NO(2) generated from (*)NO and air add to iron(III) porphyrin upon nitration, which isomerized spontaneously to hydrolysis, yielding a meso-hydroxylated cation that seized by the end oxidation product, a nitrate ion, through extensive hydrogen bonding.
