Some Aspects of Metal Exchange Between Cadmium Porhyrinate Octa-(4-bromophenyl)porphyrin and Cobalt Chloride in Organic Solvents

Abstract

The metal-exchange reaction between Cd(II) octa-(4-bromophenyl)porphyrinate and cobalt chloride in DMF and DMSO was studied by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The kinetic parameters of the metal-exchange reaction were calculated. A possible mechanism of the reaction was established. An effect of the nature of the solvent and metal salt on the reaction rate was revealed. Comparative analysis of the apparent rate constants of the metal exchange reaction between CoCl₂ and Cd(II) octa-(4-bromophenyl)porphyrinates and Cd(II) octa-(4-bromophenyl)tetraazaporphyrinate in DMF and DMSO was performed.
