High-valent iron phthalocyanine five- and six-coordinated .mu.-carbido dimers

Abstract

The μ-carbido dimer [(PcFe)2C] and its derivatives of formula [{(L)PcFe}2C] (L = acetone, pyridine, 4-methylpyridine, 1-methylimidazole, piperidine) have been prepared and studied by IR, Mössbauer, EPR, and NMR spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility determinations. All of the complexes appear to contain Fe(IV). © 1989, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
