Solvents with Gutmann donor numbers greater than or equal to 17 promot
e dissociation of axial Cl- from Mn-III(TPP)Cl and Mn-II(TPPCl- produc
ing six-coordinate Mn-III(TPP)(L)(2)(+) and five-coordinate Mn-II(TPP)
(L). Systematic changes in the position of the Sorer band and the rela
tive intensities of the Soret, Q(alpha), and Q(beta) bands provide a b
asis for establishing the stoichiometries of these species.
