Abstract

One- and two-electron oxidation products of cobalt(II) octaethylporphyrin, Co II OEP(-2), have been characterized by optical absorption and MCD spectroscopy. One-electron oxidation leads either to the metal-oxidized complex, [Co III OEP(-2)]X, or to the porphyrin-ring-oxidized species, [Co II OEP(-1)] .+ X - , depending on the ligand, X-, that is present. With X - =Cl - , Br - , and SbCl 6 - , metal oxidation is observed, while with X - =ClO 4 - , ring oxidation takes place
