A series of highly oxidized dicobalt(III) porphyrin dication diradicals are synthesized which, for its stabilization, facilitates the oxidation of the bridge enabling through-bridge communication to generate a fully π-conjugated system. This facilitates the spin coupling between radicals which stabilizes the singlet state.
2. Modulation of iron spin states in highly distortediron(III)porphyrin: H-bonding interactions and implications for the hemoproteins

A family of five- and six-coordinated Fe-porphyrins has been reported which enables us to scrutinize the effects of H-bonding interactions on the out-of-plane displacement of iron and their spin-state in the same nonplanar porphyrinic environment.
