Abstract
The electronic and magnetic behaviour of the nonsolvated ferric complexes of: (a) meso-tetratolyl-, (b) meso-tetra-4-hydroxyphenyl-, (c) meso-tetra-4-carboxyphenyl-, and (d) 5-(4-carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tritolyl-porphyrins was studied by ESR spectroscopy in the temperature range between 300 and 4 K. The complexes exhibit predominant contribution from the low-spin iron species at high temperature and a drastic shift toward the high-spin iron species at the low-temperature limit. These paramagnetic species are in different proportions at different temperatures, as well as in porphyrins with different substituents. The examined porphyrins obtained as disordered solids contain iron complexes with continuous short-range disorder which is additionally sensitive to change of temperature.
