Ruthenium is an important element with more than one oxidation states which leads to the diverse structural features and wide range of
applications of ruthenium complexes. Here we have studied the geometrical, electronic structure, spectral properties and reactivities of important
ruthenium octaethylporphyrin complexes with different ligands like N(Ph)2 (1), NH3 (2), PH3 (3) and AsH3 (4), F (5), Cl (6), Br (7), I (8). Density
Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at BP86/Def2-TZVP level show that the computed molecular geometries are more stable and their metrical
parameters are close to the experimentally available similar complexes. The octahedral geometry around ruthenium with axially disposed ligands in
these ruthenium porphyrin complexes 1-4 have been confirmed by theoretical DFT (BP86/Def2-TZVP) investigations. Further th.. Read More»
