A series of bis(amine) iron(Il) porphyrin Fe(II)TPP(NH(2)R)(2) complex
es (NH(2)R =PhNHB(2) C6H11NH2, n-BuNH(2), PhCH(2)NH(2), NHMe(2); TPP=d
ianion of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin) were prepared. by the reduction o
f Fe(II) porphyrins with the corresponding amine in an antiformin syst
em in air as well as by the sodium borohydride reduction method, respe
ctively. The complexes were characterized by UV-Vis, IR and elementary
analysis, and some important properties of them were discussed.
