Popis: The reaction of the four-coordinate picket fence iron(II) porphyrin complex [Fe(TpivPP)] with cryptand-solubilized KNO2 yields the five-coordinate porphyrin species [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)]-. The six-coordinate complexes, [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)(PMS)]- and [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)(Py)]-, are obtained when pentamethylene sulfide or pyridine is added anaerobically to the preformed five-coordinate porphyrin species. These novel species are characterized by UV−vis, IR, and Mossbauer spectroscopies as well as single-crystal structure determinations. The Mossbauer investigation shows that the isomer shifts and quadrupole splittings for [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)(PMS)]- and [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)(Py)]- are typical for six-coordinate, low-spin (S = 0) iron(II) porphyrinate complexes. This is in distinct contrast to the unusually large quadrupole splitting of the five-coordinate species [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)]-. The molecular structures of [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)(PMS)]- and [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)(Py)]- show that the nitro groups are inside the “pocket” of the porphyrin ...
