The synthesis of three new bis(imidazole)-ligated iron(II) picket fence porphyrin derivatives, [Fe(TpivPP)(1-RIm) 2] 1-RIm = 1-methyl-, 1-ethyl-, or 1-vinylimidazole) are reported. X-ray structure determinations reveal that the steric requirements of the four alpha,alpha,alpha,alpha-o-pivalamidophenyl groups lead to very restricted rotation of the imidazole ligand on the picket side of the porphyrin plane; the crowding leads to an imidazole plane orientation eclipsing an iron-porphyrin nitrogen bond. An unusual feature for these diamagnetic iron(II) species is that all three derivatives have the two axial ligands with a relative perpendicular orientation; the dihedral angles between the two imidazole planes are 77.2 degrees , 62.4 degrees , and 78.5 degrees . All three derivatives have nearly planar porphyrin cores. Mössbauer spectroscopic characterization shows that all three derivatives have quadrupole splitting constants around 1.00 mm/s at 100K.
