ABSTRACT
The synthesis of natural and synthetic porphyrin complexes with Pt, Pd, Rh, and Ru is reported. Their electronic absorption spectra, phosphorescence spectra, and lifetimes at room temperature both in the presence and in the absence of oxygen were studied. It has been shown that the variation of the nature of the central metal atom and of the substituents in pyrrole and phenyl rings allows the obtaining of metalloporphyrins with various phosphorescence excitation and phosphorescing emission spectra at room temperature.

The Vilsmeier formylation of metallocomplexes of isomeric meta- and para-methoxy-substituted tetraphenylporphyrines has was been studied. Formyl derivatives of meta-isomers were shown to form cyclization products not only in solutions, but also in the the solid state. The ability to undergo such transformations decreases in the trend following order: Co > Cu > Ni > Pd > Pt.
