Heteroligand Iron(V) Complexes Containing Porphyrazine, trans-Di[benzo]porphyrazine or Tetra[benzo]porphyrazine, Oxo and Fluoro Ligands: DFT Quantum-Chemical Study

By using quantum chemical calculation data obtained by the DFT method with the B3PW91/TZVP and OPBE/TZVP levels, the possibility of the existence of three Fe(V) complexes, each of which contains in the inner coordination sphere porphyrazine/trans-di[benzo]porphyrazine/tetra[benzo]porphyrazine (phthalocyanine), oxygen (O^2-) and fluorine (F^-) ions, was shown. Key geometric parameters of the molecular structure of these heteroligand complexes are given; it is noted that FeN4 chelate nodes, and all metal-chelate and non-chelate cycles in each of these compounds, are practically planar with the deviation from coplanarity, as a rule, by no more than 0.5°. Furthermore, the bond angles between two nitrogen atoms and an Fe atom are equal to 90°, or less than this by no more than 0.1°, while the bond angles between donor atoms N, Fe, and O or F, in most cases, albeit insignificantly, differ from this value. Nevertheless, the bond angles formed by Fe, O and F atoms are exactly 180°. It is shown that good agreement occurs between the structural data obtained using the above two versions of the DFT method. NBO analysis data for these complexes are presented; it is noted that, according to both DFT methods used, the ground state of the each of three complexes under consideration may be a spin quartet or spin doublet. Additionally, standard thermodynamic parameters of formation (standard enthalpy ∆_fH⁰, entropy S⁰ and Gibbs's energy ∆_fG⁰) for the macrocyclic compounds under consideration are calculated.

DFT Method Used for Prediction of Molecular and Electronic Structures of Mn(VI) Macrocyclic Complexes with Porhyrazine/Phthalocyanine and Two Oxo Ligands

By using the data of the DFT quantum chemical calculation in the OPBE/TZVP and B3PW91/TZVP levels, the possibility of the existence of a manganese(VI) heteroligand complex containing porphyrazine or its tetra[benzo] derivative (phthalocyanine) and two oxygen (O^2-) ligands, which is still unknown for this element, is shown. The parameters of the molecular structure, multiplicity of the ground state, NBO analysis data and standard thermodynamic parameters (enthalpy ΔH⁰_f, entropy S⁰_f and Gibbs's energy ΔG⁰_f of formation) of each of these metal macrocyclic compounds are presented. Additionally, it is noted that, based on the totality of structural data obtained by the above versions of the DFT method, the existence of a similar complex of manganese with di[benzo] derivative of porhyrazine and two oxygen (O^2-) ligands seems doubtful.

Novel porphyrazine derivative – 2,3,5,7,8,10,12,13,15,17,18,20-dodecaazaporphin and its complexes with M(II) ions of 3d-elements: DFT quantum-chemical modeling

Using three different versions of the density functional theory (DFT) – B3PW91/TZVP, M06/TZVP and OPBE/TZVP chemical models, the calculation of the molecular structures of (6666) macrocyclic complexes of 3d-elements (M) with a novel (NNNN)-donor macrocyclic ligand, 2,3,5,7,8,10,12,13,15,17,18,20-dodecaazaporphin (H2L), was carried out. The values of the most important bond lengths, bond and non-bond angles in these metal complexes were presented. The standard enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs energy of formation of these compounds were also calculated. It was noted that according to the data of the above chemical models, [MnL], [FeL], [CoL], [NiL], and [CuL] complexes with this novel ligand have a flat MN4 chelate node and a planar structure as a whole, while the [TiL], [VL], [CrL] and [ZnL] complexes have a non-coplanar MN4 chelate node. Moreover, all 6-membered rings in each of these metal chelates are identical to each other (both in terms of the sum of the bond angles included in them and in their assortment); adjoining 5-membered cycles for the majority of M are also identical to each other (non-identity is noted only in the cases M = Ti, Mn, as well as for the original 2,3,5,7,8,10,12,13,15,17,18,20-dodecaazaporphin). A good agreement was also noted between similar parameters calculated by various DFT methods, both qualitatively and quantitatively.
