Abstract

Dimeric porphyrin(2,6-bis[15′-(3″,5″-di-tert-butylphenol)-3′,7′,13′,17′-tetramethyl-2′,8′,12′,18-tetraethylporphin-5′-yl]-4-tert-buthylphenol) and its binuclear zinc complex were obtained from 4,4′-dimethyl-3,3′-diethyldipyrrolylmethane, 2,6-diformyl-4-tert-butylphenol and 3,5-di-tert-buthylbenzaldehyde. Coordina-tion properties of dimeric zincporphyrin in the intermolecular reaction with nitrogen-containing bases (imidazole, 2-methylimidazole, and pyridine) in benzene were studied. Geometry and electronic structure of the zincporphyrin and its molecular complexes were calculated by a quantum-chemical method. Energy characteristics of the intermolecular reaction of the dimeric zincporphyrin with bases were determined. The calculated energies of the central metal atom interaction with the nitrogen atom of an extra-ligand agree well with the stability of the Zn-porphyrin molecular complexes. The influence of the deformation distortions of the porphyrin ligand on the strength of the metal-extra-ligand σ-bond was established.
