Microscale Preparation of meso-Tetraphenylporphyrin and its Fe(III) Complex1 Transition metals play a critical role in a myriad of biological processes. Their ions and complexes serve as structural supports, electron transfer relays, oxygen transport and storage depots, and catalytic centers. Model compounds mimicking such chemistry have served to further our understanding of many of these complex systems. Porphyrins are a class of macrocylic nitrogen containing pigments essential in nature and biology to which molecules such as heme (which forms an integral part of hemoglobin) and chlorophyll (photosynthesis) belong. All porphyrins have the ability to complex metal ions, the simplest one being the periphally unsubstituted porphine ring (Fig. 1). The ring system is planar, contains 18 delocalizable π electrons which makes the compound aromatic in character, according to the Hückel rule. Porphyrins are intensely coloured materials with distinct absorption features. The word ‘porphyrin ’ is actually derived from the Greek word ‘porphura’ meaning purple. Metalloporphyrins can be classed as either regular or irregular and, in terms of their absorption, into three categories: normal, hypso and hyper. Hypso absorption spectra are blue shifted with respect to normal porphyrins and hyper absorption spectra show prominent extra absorption bands in the region λ 320 nm. A regular porphyrin is one whose optical absorption and emission spectra are determined essentially by the π electrons of the porphyrin ring, with only minor perturbation from the electrons of the central metal ion substituent. In irregular porphyrins there is extensive interaction between the
