Research Abstract |
A series of organosilicon porphyrins) with alkyl (sp^3), alkenyl, aryl (sp^2), and alkynyl (sp), groups at the axial positions were synthesized. Upon irradiation with visible light, dialkylsilicon porphyrins reacted with nitroxy compounds, such as TEMPO to give dinitroxysilicon porphyrins. In the absence of nitroxy compounds, photolysis resulted in the formation of a long-lived (>50 days at 25℃) EPR-active silicon diradical with a g-value of 2.0026, which did not react with nitroxy compounds in the dark but was smoothly trapped by TEMPO to give dinitroxysilicon complex upon excitation with visible light. Irradiation of the dinitroxysilicon with visible light in the presence of free nitroxy compoundss resulted in reversible axial ligand exchange, which proceeded in response to the switching-on and-off of the light, to reach an equilibrium.
