[Oscillation spectra of metal-porphyrin dication spectra]
Abstract:
Spectra of resonance spontaneous combination scattering (RSCS) of dications of metal--derivatives of tetraphenyl and ethioporphyrine (Ni-TPhP, Cu-TPhP, Cu-EP and VO-EP0 and IR-spectra of absorption of Ni-TPhP and Cu-EP dications were obtained. It was found that transformation of porphyrine neutral molecules into dications is accompanied with the appearance of new absorption bands in IR-spectra analogs of which are in RSCS spectra of dications. In some cases it points to the disturbance of alternative prohibition to oscillative transitions and to structural changes which result in the loss of symmetry centre by the molecule when it is transformed into the dication. A comparison of RSCS spectra of dications and dianions of VO-EP suggests that they have different structure.
