Abstract
MIII porphyrin monoalkyl complexes, [M(oep)(Me)](M = Ru, Os), are produced by methylation of the monomer monoanion, [M(oep)], or by additaion of MeMgBr to the [M(oep)]2 2+ dimer dication; the RuIII monophenyl complex, [Ru(oep)(Ph)], can be reduced by one electron and treated with Mel to give the six-coordinate asymmetrically substituted RuIV porphyrin complex, [Ru(oep)(Ph)(Me)].
