Abstract: The structure of the free-base, “capped” porphyrin 5, IO, 1 S,20-[pyrromellitoyl(tetrakis-o-oxyethox~phenyl)]porphyrin (H2Cap) has been determined by three-dimensional, single-crystal, X-ray diffraction methods using diffractomcter data collected with Mo K O radiation. The material crystallizes as the pentachloroform, monomethanol solvate, H2Cap. SCHCII-CH~OH,in space group C2hS- P21/n with four formula units in a cell of dimensions (at -150’ C) n = 19.947 (6) A, b = 16.569 (5) A, c = 22.602 (7) A, p = 104.57 (I)’, V = 7230 A3,The structure was described by 495 variable parameters and at convergence the values for R and R, (on F, 8552 data having Fo2> 3a(FO2))were 0.073 and 0.094. In contrast to most other free-base porphyrins, the 24-atom porphyrin skeleton is markedly nonplanar (mean displacement from the least-squares plane 0.1 35 A; maximum displacement 0.354 A), but conforms closely to idealized D2d symmetry. The considerable steric strain involved in attaching a pyrromellitoyl(tetrakisoxyethoxy) “cap” to the ortho positions of the tetraphenylporphyrin core is released most obviously through buckling of the porphyrin skeleton. The transannular separation between aminopyrrole nitrogen atoms is 4.182 (6) A; between imino nitrogen atoms it is 4.038 (5) A, The separations between the centroids of the phenyl “cap” and respectively those of the four pyrrole nitrogen atoms and the 24-atom porphyrin skeleton are 3.86 and 3.96 Aresults of considerable interest in relation to the ligand binding properties of iron(I1) and cobalt(1l) derivatives of H2Cap.

Introduction Model systems have been widel) studied in attempts to understand better the structure-function relationships of oxygen-binding hemoproteins, such as myoglobin and hemoglobin.’-6 O f the well-characterized model systems used, only t h e iron( 11) derivatives of the “picket-fence’’ p ~ r p h y r i n , ~ HzTpivPP,? and of the “capped” porphyrin*-’O (see Figure 1) exhibit reversible uptake of dioxygen to give dioxygen complexes stable a t ambient temperatures.” Both these porphyrins, derivatives of 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin(H2TPP), have bulky ortho substituents which create a protected site, analogous to that provided by the protein, where small molecules such as 0 2 , C O , and N O m a y bind to t h e metal center. T h e “capped” porphyrin system possesses several inherent a d vantages over the much more extensively studied “picketfence” porphyrin, chief of which is that binding of a second axial base, such as 1 -methylimidazole, the usual synthetic analogue for histidine of t h e hemoglobins, is either prevented completely in the case of Fe(Cap)( I - M e I m ) or severely hindered in the case of F e ( H m C a p ) ( I-MeIm).’O Whereas the stereochemistries of a number of “picket-fence’’ porphyrin derivatives have been d e f i n e d , l ~ ’ ~no - ’ precise ~ structural data have yet been obtained for t h e “capped” porphyrin. The cap of the “capped” porphyrin is conformationally more rigid in contrast to t h e rather flexible “pickets” of t h e “picket-fence’’ porphyrin-crystallographically a highly desirable feature. Furthermore t h e 24-atom porphyrinato skeleton generally is essentially planar (mean displacement typically less t h a n 0.03 A) for the conformationally flexible porphyrins, not only in the free-base form (for example, H2TPrP,15 porphine,16 H 2 0 E P , I 7 H 2 M P I X D M E , I 8 and H 2 P P I X D M E l 9 ) but also in their metallo derivatives.l S o m e notable exceptions a r e N i ( 0 E P ) in t h e tetragonal form,*O where marked ruffling of the porphyrinato skeleton is associated with unusually short M-Nporph bond lengths, H 2 T P P in both the triclinic2Ia and tetragonal and Fe(TPP)(2-MeIm), where unusually large doming of the porphyrinato skeleton is attributed to crystal packing forces.’ Other metallo derivatives of H z T P P have essentially planar porphyrinato cores. These porphyrins all lack substituents which could supply internal constraints to force t h e porphyrin to adopt a nonplanar configuration seen in the highly substituted mesosubstituted octaethylporphyrins.22 0002-78631801 l502-2823$01 .OO/O

For deoxyhemoglobin it has been calculated23 that the protein envelope enforces a nonplanar conformation upon the heme group. Consequently, studies of t h e ligand affinities of the “capped” porphyrin model system, where internal constraints m a y prevent a planar porphyrin geometry, coupled with comparison of such a system with the less constrained model systems based upon TPP or TpivPP, m a y shed light on the interaction of hemoglobin with small molecules. T h e first base binding and the dioxygen binding properties of iron(l1) and cobalt(l1) derivatives of “capped” porphyrins’O a r e very different from those of analogous complexes of T P P and better these differences provides a T ~ ~ V PTo P understand . ~ ~ ~ compelling reason for determining the crystal and molecular structure of the free-base porphyrin, H 2 C a p S C H C l 3 C H 3 0 H , the first “capped” porphyrin compound that we have thus far been able to crystallize. Experimental Section Preparation of H ~ C ~ ~ S C H C I ~ * C H JThe O Hfree-base . porphyrin in powder form was kindly supplied by Professor J. E. Baldwin. Over the period of 1 year very large crystals were obtained by solvent diffusion at 5’ C of methanol into a chloroform solution of HzCap. On the basis of density measurements (see below) and thermogravimetric analysis for loss of solvent the formulation of these crystals is H2CapSCHCI3CH30H. Crystallographic Study of H2CapSCHCI3CH30H. Solvate loss occurs rapidly when crystals are exposed to air at room temperature. Symmetry and systematic absences consistent with the monoclinic space groups C2h - C2/c or Cs4- Cc were observed by precession and Weissenberg photography of a crystal sealed in a capillary. Cell constants at room temperature are a = 20.18 A, b = 16.81 A, c = 22.92 A, p = 105.2’, V = 751 1 A3. The calculated and observed densities were 1.472 and 1.47 ( I ) g respectively. The crystal selected for data collection upon a Picker FACS-I automatic diffractometer was chipped from a large crystal. During the cooling to approximately - 150 ‘C for data collection, the crystal underwent a phase change to space group C2hS - P 2 1 / n , presumably a consequence of an increased ordering of the solvate molecules. Reflections of the type hkl where h k is odd were still systematically weak but were observable. Crystal quality was apparently unaffected by the phase change since crystal mosaicities (peak width at half peak height as determined using w scans) were typically in the range 0.12-0.19° Lattice parameters at -150 ‘C were obtained, as previously described,24by the hand centering of 19 reflections in the range 0.4030 < X-I sin 8 < 0.4468 A-l (33.22’ < 28 < 36.95’) using Mo Kal

radiation (A = 0.7093 A). Other important featuresofdata collection are summarized in Table I . The structure was solved using the M U L T A N 7 8 program. In the resultant E map, 100 atoms (i.e., almost all atoms) of the porphyrin and solvate species appeared. Standard procedures and programs24 were used to develop and refine this structure, with the Northwestern University CDC6600 computer being used initially and the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory CDC7600 computer for the final stages. Atoms in phenyl groups were constrained to D 6 h geometry ( c - c = 1.395 A), although in the final stages of refinement the constraints on the phenyl "cap" were removed. Isotropic refinement of the model led to values for R and R , on F , of 0.180 and 0.236, respectively. The thermal parameters of the solvate molecules were now allowed to vary anisotropically, and further refinement of the model lowered the values for R and R, to 0.105 and 0.139. In the difference Fourier synthesis which followed, despite large peaks around two of the five chloroform

solvate molecules, all hydrogen atoms, except for the hydroxyl hydrogen atom of the methanol nlolecule, were observed and included at their idealized positions in subsequent structure-factor calculations as a fixed contribution to F,. One disordered chloroform molecule (chloroform E) suffered a rotational disorder about the C-H bond. For another, chloroform A, alternative sites existed such that one CI atom was common to both sites. Figure 2 illustrates the disorder and defines the atom labeling scheme for the porphyrin and solvate molecules. The minor components were granted only isotropic thermal parameters. The final model was described by 495 variable parameters, including parameters describing the occupancies of the solvate molecules. Upon refinement the final values for R and R, were 0.073 and 0.094. The standard error in an observation of unit weight is 2.5 1 e. For chloroform A the total occupancy is 0.931 (4), apportioned 0.730:0.201 (4) between the major and minor components. For solvate E the occupancy of the major component is 0.772 (7) and of the minor 0.148 (7). For this solvate molecule, because of near superposition of chlorine positions and because of probable disorder in the carbon atom position, which is inferred from its abnormally high thermal parameters, the estimated standard deviations in bond distances and angles derived from the inverse of the least-squares matrix are grossly u n derestimated. The occupancies of chloroform solvate molecules B, C, and D are 0.853 ( 3 ) ,0.899 (3). and 0.926 (3). respectively. The occupancy for the methanol solvate molecule is 0.906 ( I O ) . The apparent departures of the chloroform solvate molecules from the full occupancies of 1 .O expected from density and thermogravimetric measurements may arise from the inadequacies of the anisotropic model, or any other model, to cater adequately for unresolved disorder. These inadequacies are reflected in the residual electron density which is concentrated around the chloroform solvate molecules with a highest peak of 0.93 ( I O ) e A-3, Values for the minimized function are independent of the magnitude of F,; there is a slight dependence on the magnitude of A-' sin 6 with very low angle data (A-' sin 6 < 0.269 A-I) returning a higher value. In view of the phase transition from C 2 / c or Cc to P21/n it is comforting that no dependency upon any combination of Miller indices could be found. Full anisotropic refinement was not carried out because of the expense involved with minimal expectation of dramatic changes in porphyrin parameters from these low-temperature data. Final nonhydrogen parameters are listed in Tables I 1 and 111. Hydrogen
