48. Porphyrin oxidation was achieved by cannulating 2 equiv of tris(4-bromophenyDamminium hexachloroantimonate into a cold (-78 °C) méthylène chloride solution of bis(porphyrin). After 30 min, solvent was removed on the Schlenk line, and the green solid was taken into a glovebox for EPR sample preparation. Samples were 10 mil in bis(porphyrin) for frozensolution experiments and 1 mM for fluid-solution EPR measurements. The EPR spectra of solutions of oxidized 2 remain unchanged for several days.
