note = {Azido(5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin-21,23-diido)iron(III) ([Fe+III(tpp)(N3)], [1]), is an archetypical model complex, whose photolysis yields the high-valent and reactive nitridocomplex [Fe+V(tpp)(N)] ([2]) under cleavage of N2. Such nitridocomplexes are related to reactive species occurring in enzymatic oxidation reactions and are assumed to be intermediates in nitrogen transfer reactions. Notwithstanding that, the course of this photolysis was hitherto largely undisclosed, especially in liquid solution. Hence, the processes following the photoexcitations of [1] in liquid dichloromethane are investigated by means of (ultra)fast, time-resolved spectroscopy in this work.
First, the generated photoproducts are identified on the basis of their reactivity towards appropriate reaction partners and detection via Rapid-Scan spectroscopy. It is shown that roughly half of the reacting complexes are converted to [2], whereas the remaining half reacts to the complex [Fe+II(tpp)] ([3red]) under release of N3. Moreover, excitation wavelengths below ca. 450 nm give rise to a notably larger yield of products than those above.
Next, measurements of the pronounced resonance band of the antisymmetric stretching vibration of the azido ligand at 2056 cm-1 on timescales of femto- and picoseconds, recorded by means of 400 nm-pump/mIR-probe spectroscopy, are considered. Whose analysis demonstrates that, at low energy of the excitation pulse, [1] converts fast and fully from the initially excited state to the low-lying 6Q(π→π*) state, undergoes a vibrational energy relaxation there, and finally returns to the electronic ground state. The time constants of these processes are < 200 fs, 1-4 ps, and 20.5 ps, respectively. Photoproducts are observed exclusively at high pulse energies. Since the quantum yield increases proportional with the pulse energy, it is concluded that all products are generated from an alternative de-excitation pathway, which is unlocked by two-photon absorption. These results are confirmed by measurements of the Vis-spectrum on the same timescale.
Finally, the electronic structure of the product complexes is examined by monitoring IR-resonance bands of vibrational modes associated with the porphyrindiido ligand. In doing so, two exceptionally strong signals are observed at 1282 cm-1 and 1344 cm-1, which cannot be explained by the two known photoproducts, [2] and [3red]. According to the literature, such pronounced signals are indicative of complexes having a so-called π-radical structure, originating from an intramolecular charge transfer from the porphyrindiido ligand to the iron atom. In order to classify the products signals, quantum chemical calculations are conducted, whose results reproduce the literature indeed, but suggest a different interpretation of the signals found here: Their origin is presumably a porphyrindiido ligand in a local, long-lived triplet state instead of a π-radical.},
