N2 - Heterobimetallic nitrido porphyrin complexes with the [(L)(por)M-N-M′(LOEt)Cl2] formula {por2- = 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP2-) or 5,10,15,20-tetra(p-tolyl)porphyrin (TTP2-) dianion; LOEt- = [Co(η5-C5H5){P(O)(OEt)2}3]- M = Fe, Ru, or Os; M′ = Ru or Os; L = H2O or pyridine} have been synthesized, and their electrochemistry has been studied. Treatment of trans-[Fe(TPP)(py)2] (py = pyridine) with Ru(VI) nitride [Ru(LOEt)(N)Cl2] (1) afforded Fe/Ru μ-nitrido complex [(py)(TPP)Fe(μ-N)Ru(LOEt)Cl2] (2). Similarly, Fe/Os analogue [(py)(TPP)Fe(μ-N)Os(LOEt)Cl2] (3) was obtained from trans-[Fe(TPP)(py)2] and [Os(LOEt)(N)Cl2]. However, no reaction was found between trans-[Fe(TPP)(py)2] and [Re(LOEt)(N)Cl(PPh3)]. Treatment of trans-[M(TPP)(CO)(EtOH)] with 1 afforded μ-nitrido complexes [(H2O)(TPP)M(μ-N)Ru(LOEt)Cl2] [M = Ru (4a) or Os (5)]. TTP analogue [(H2O)(TTP)Ru(μ-N)Ru(LOEt)Cl2] (4b) was prepared similarly from trans-[Ru(TTP)(CO)(EtOH)] and 1. Reaction of [(H2O)(por)M(μ-N)M(LOEt)Cl2] with pyridine gave adducts [(py)(por)M(μ-N)Ru(LOEt)Cl2] [por = TTP, and M = Ru (6); por = TPP, and M = Os (7)]. The diamagnetism and short (por)M-N(nitride) distances in 2 [Fe-N, 1.683(3) Å] and 4b [Ru-N, 1.743(3) Å] are indicative of the MIV=N=M′IV bonding description. The cyclic voltammograms of the Fe/Ru (2) and Ru/Ru (4b) complexes in CH2Cl2 displayed oxidation couples at approximately +0.29 and +0.35 V versus Fc+/0 (Fc = ferrocene) that are tentatively ascribed to the oxidation of the {LOEtRu} and {Ru(TTP)} moieties, respectively, whereas the Fe/Os (3) and Os/Ru (5) complexes exhibited Os-centered oxidation at approximately -0.06 and +0.05 V versus Fc+/0, respectively. The crystal structures of 2 and 4b have been determined.
