phyrins. Steric repulsion of the bulky propionate side chains were suggested as being responsible for the horizontal displacement. A similar interpretation might be invoked in the case of VRIP. The evidence presented supports the conclusion that two distinctly different vanadyl containing species do exist in equilibrium in petroleum oil with an apparent energy of reaction of 17.4 kcal/mol, and in addition, a lower energy equilibrium of -3.3 kcal/mol suggests a hydrogen bonded or other weakly bonded interaction between porphyrin molecules or porphyrin and solvent molecules. These data lend additional support to current structural theories for asphaltic materials based on associative forces of greater energy than is normally encountered. Also, the energies required in a dissociation process would probably not be observable in solution studies as pursued by Altgelt.5 Acknowledgment. The authors wish to express their appreciation to Dr. Earl Baker of Carnegie-RIellon University for several helpful discussions during the course of this research and to Dr. E. L. McGinnis for the metallation of the porphyrin. I n addition, the assistance of Mr. W. E. Magison in obtaining the infrared data is also appreciated.

solve VMP in a nonaromatic oil without success, indicating the aromatic molecules may play a role in the solution of the porphyrin and perhaps the coordination. This observation along with evidence for two equilibria offers several interesting interpretations. The energy of reaction for the equilibrium below 71") 3.3 kcal/ mol, is in the same order of magnitude as hydrogen bonds and other weak, nonspecific interactions while the more energetic equilibrium represented by 17.4 kcal/mol may be associated with coordination of porphyrin molecules through the vanadium in the vertical direction via Lewis base sites. The availability of electrons on oxygen atoms, ring nitrogen atoms, and various r-electron systems offers Lewis base sites for coordination with empty d orbitals of the vanadium. This type of complexing has been observed in other metallo porphyrinse and porphyrin-like systems. l4 Tynan and Yena proposed that a similar coordination be considered as a possible interpretation of their esr data. Several coordinated structures may be visualized including those described in Figure 4. Structure A utilizes the oxygen electrons of another porphyrin ring while B involves coordination with the porphyrin ring nitrogen. Structure B requires a lateral displacement of the rings giving a configuration similar to that proposed by Abraham, et al.,I for dimerization of copropor-

I n the previous paper' we showed the apparent similar to the well-known angular dependence of JPOCH tendency of vicinal pro ton-pro ton coupling constants for which theoretical calculations by Karplus2 have shown the Fermi contact term dominates. Benezra and Ourisson3 found that an analogous relation to the Karplus curve is operative in case of the vicinal phosphorus-proton coupling constant in P-C-C-H group (JPcc~). Recently a Karplus-like curve has been found for J ~ I I I O C Hthrough a complete analysis of the pmr ]octane spectrum of 2,7,8-trioxa-l-phosphabicyclo[3.2.1 with ' S different dihedral which involves five J P ~ C H angle^.^ However, the expected coupling constant ( J p 0 c H e X * ) for trimethylphosphite based on the $-J curve4 was found to be far different from the observed (1) M.

The parameters of various quinquevalent phosphorus compounds are listed in Table I. Quasilinear relationships between the values of JpocH and the s characters of CpH bonds (a2) calculated from JC,H are observed for I and 11. However, an appreciable difference in the slopes was observed for these two series while the s characters of CH, us. the number of chlorines (n) showed almost identical slopes for both. One of the probable reasons for the different slopes in a2-J relations of I and I1 may be that the actual rotamers do not have exactly the staggered form in I1 as has been shown in sodium diethylphosphate by the X-ray study.s The angle deviations from the ideal gauche and trans positions may cause the slope of I1 to differ from that of 1.l Secondly, the stereospecificity of the chlorine substitution effect on J g and J p o c should ~ ~ be c~nsidered.~For 111, JcH values could not be observed with sufficient accuracy, but the electronegativities of the halogens us.

relations between the s character (uz)of the CBH bond and 6HBwere found. Attention should be directed to the 6Hp-uz plots for I and I1 being almost parallel, in contrast to that of J P O C(see H -above). ~ The chemical shifts of methyl protons in I1 are downfield on substituting the ethoxy groups by chlorines. It may be of interest to point out that these shifts also correlate with JPOCCH values. For V, however, such a correlation was not observed, probably due to the same reasons discussed earlier.

when the use of conventional methods3 would be difficult. The chief limitations are that one must stay within the bounds of the Debye theory of dilute solutions and of the linearized theory of microwave cavity p e r t ~ r b a t i o n . ~In particular, aqueous reactions are ruled out because of the abnormally high absorption of microwaves by water. The room temperature (22’) liquid phase bromination of benzene with iodine as catalyst was chosen for the present study. C6He,Br2, and Izhave no dipole moments, but CBHsBrand HBr have dipole moments of 1.52 and 0.78 D , respectively.6

Application of Microwave Cavity Perturbation

The two parameters of a liquid that can be obtained from microwave cavity measurements are the static dielectric constant e, and the loss factor tan 6. A particular cavity resonance is characterized by the resonant frequency fo and the loaded quality factor Q. A liquid placed in a quartz bottle on the axis of the cylindrical cavity introduces a change in both fo and Q. As shown by Dunsmuir and Powles6 and slate^-,^ the first-order perturbation solution takes the form

Polar liquids are known to have broad absorption bands in the microwave region which arise from orientation of the molecules with increasing electric field E , followed by relaxation to thermal equilibrium as E falls to zero. The absorption is expressed as the loss factor tan 6, and for a dilute solution of a polar solute in a nonpolar solvent it is given’ by the Debye theory as

where 6 = loss angle, e, = static dielectric constant, dipole moment of solute molecule, c = concentration of solute in moles per cm3, v = frequency of radiation, v0 = 1/2m, where 7 = relaxation time of solute in solution, N = Avogadro’s number, k g = Boltzmann constant, and T = absolute temperature of the solution. For a mixture of solutes, tan 6 is the sum of the loss factors due to the individuaI solutes. Jackson and Powlesz verified eq 1 for solutions of several polar solutes in benzene by measuring resonant frequency shifts and Q factors of cylindrical microwave cavities partially filled with samples of the solution. The proportionality of tan 6 to the concentration of dipole e, for constant values of other variables in (l),suggests a convenient method of following the kinetics of certain classes of liquid reactions. Consider a reaction in which the reactants have no dipole moments but the products have appreciable ~1’s. The time variation of the product concentration, and hence the extent of reaction, can be followed by measuring tan 6 (and e,) of the reaction mixture as a function of time. The method would be fast, accurate, and convenient, as no samples have to be withdrawn for analysis. It is especially suited to the study of the early stages of the reaction,
