Question

(A) if a divalent metal ion is inserted in the center of the phorphinering, its charge will be exactly balance the two negative chargesof the dianion. write a balanced equation for the reaction oftetraphenylporphyrin(which you can abbreviate as TPP) with cupricacetate [Cu(CH3COO)2] to give aceticacid [CH3COOH] and a copper (II) ion in the center ofthe TTP dianion. (B) it turns out that the dimensions of thecopper (II) ion are just right so that it fits into the exactcenter of the porphine ring of the TPP dianion. Do you predict thatthis metal salt should be more polaror less polar than TPPitself?

Explanation / Answer

Cu(CH3COO)2 + H2TPP --> 2 CH3COOH +Cu(TPP) Tetraphenylporphyrin is non - polar molecule. The saltis also non -polar one .
