The redox‐properties of tetraphenylporphyrin‐complexes were studied as a function of substituents on the phenyl group. Electron‐withdrawing chlorine substituents cause a rise of approximately 100 mV for the first ligand oxidation and electron‐donating methoxy‐substituents cause a decrease of about the same magnitude. The redox‐properties of the central metal ion are much less sensitive to these substituents. The Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ transition on the other hand, is seen to depend on the anion used. Taking these effects into account a tentative mechanism is proposed for the oxidation‐behaviour of μ‐oxo‐bis (tetraphenyl)porphyrin‐iron(III).
