Xh. Zhong et al., A NEW METHOD OF PREPARATION OF IRON(II) PORPHYRIN COMPLEXES - ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIS(N-BUTYLAMINE) IRON(II) PORPHYRIN, Journal of coordination chemistry, 38(1-2), 1996, pp. 25-28
Fe(II)T(p-X)PP(NH(2)Bu(n))(2) (X - H, Cl, CH3, OCH3, TPP - dianion of
meso-tetraphenylporphyrin) complexes have been prepared by the reducti
on of Fe(III) porphrins with n-butylamine in antiformin/dichloromethan
e in air, and by sodium borohydride reduction. The complexes were char
acterized by electronic and IR spectra and elemental analysis.
