RESUMO
The six-coordinate nitrosyl sigma-bonded aryl(iron) and -(ruthenium) porphyrin complexes (OEP)Fe(NO)(p-C(6)H(4)F) and (OEP)Ru(NO)(p-C(6)H(4)F) (OEP = octaethylporphyrinato dianion) have been synthesized and characterized. Single-crystal X-ray structure determinations reveal an unprecedented bending and tilting of the MNO group for both [MNO](6) species as well as significant lengthening of trans axial bond distances. In (OEP)Fe(NO)(p-C(6)H(4)F) the Fe-N-O angle is 157.4(2) degrees, the nitrosyl nitrogen atom is tilted off of the normal to the heme plane by 9.2 degrees, Fe-N(NO) = 1.728(2) A, and Fe-C(aryl) = 2.040(3) A. In (OEP)Ru(NO)(p-C(6)H(4)F) the Ru-N-O angle is 154.9(3) degrees, the nitrosyl nitrogen atom is tilted off of the heme normal by 10.8 degrees, Ru-N(NO) = 1.807(3) A, and Ru-C(aryl) = 2.111(3) A. We show that these structural features are intrinsic to the molecules and are imposed by the strongly sigma-donating aryl ligand trans to the nitrosyl. Density functional-based calculations reproduce the structural distortions observed in the parent (OEP)Fe(NO)(p-C(6)H(4)F) and, combined with the results of extended Hückel calculations, show that the observed bending and tilting of the FeNO group indeed represent a low-energy conformation. We have identified specific orbital interactions that favor the unexpected bending and tilting of the FeNO group. The aryl ligand also affects the Fe-NO pi-bonding as measured by infrared and (57)Fe Mössbauer spectroscopies. The solid-state nitrosyl stretching frequencies for the iron complex (1791 cm(-)(1)) and the ruthenium complex (1773 cm(-)(1)) are significantly reduced compared to their respective [MNO](6) counterparts. The Mössbauer data for (OEP)Fe(NO)(p-C(6)H(4)F) yield the quadrupole splitting parameter +0.57 mm/s and the isomer shift 0.14 mm/s at 4.2 K. The results of our study show, for the first time, that bent Fe-N-O linkages are possible in formally ferric nitrosyl porphyrins.

The synthesis and crystallographic characterization of the five-coordinate iron(III) porphyrinate complex [Fe(OEP)(NO)]ClO4 are reported. This [FeNO]6 complex has a nearly linear Fe-N-O group (angle = 173.19(13) degrees) with a small off-axis tilt of the Fe-N(NO) vector from the heme normal (angle = 4.6 degrees); the Fe-N(NO) distance is 1.6528(13) A and the iron is displaced 0.32 A out-of-plane. The complex forms a tight cofacial pi-pi dimer in the solid state. Mössbauer spectra for this derivative as well as for a related crystalline form are measured both in zero applied magnetic field and in a 7 T applied field. Fits to the measurements made in applied magnetic field demonstrate that both crystalline forms of [Fe(OEP)(NO)]ClO4 have a diamagnetic ground state at 4.2 K. The observed isomer shifts (delta = 0.22-0.24 mm/s) are smaller than those typically observed for low-spin iron(III) porphyrinates. Analogous Mössbauer measurements are also obtained for a six-coordinate derivative, [Fe(OEP)(Iz)(NO)]ClO4 (Iz = indazole). The observed isomer shift for this species is smaller still (delta = 0.02 mm/s). All derivatives show a strong temperature dependence of the isomer shift. The data emphasize the strongly covalent nature of the FeNO group. The Mössbauer isomer shifts suggest formal oxidation states greater than +3 for iron, but the NO stretching frequencies are not consistent with such a large charge transfer to NO. Differences in the observed nitrosyl stretching frequencies of the two crystalline forms of [Fe(OEP)(NO)]ClO4 are discussed.

The crystal structure of [Fe(C36H44N4)(NO3)] has been determined in the space group P1. The unit cell contains two molecules. The Fe atom is displaced out of the porphyrin plane by 0.50 A, the average Fe-Np distance is 2.056 (1) A (where Np is a porphyrin N atom) and the Fe-O(NO3) bond length is 2.016 (3) A.
