Correlation between thermodynamic stability of zinc(II)tetraphenylporphyrine complexes with neutral molecules and physicochemical properties of the coordinated ligands

The heats of interactions of zinc(II)tetraphenylporphyrine with 30 types of neutral molecules in benzene and carbon tetrachloride were measured using the calorimetric titration method. The thermodynamic characteristics of complex formation were calculated. The satisfactory multiparameter correlation of thermodynamic stability of the molecular complexes formed with physicochemical properties of the neutral molecules (electron pair donor ability, volume, electronic and orientational polarization) was obtained.
