Resonance Raman (RR) and visible absorption spectra were observed for autoxidation intermediates of ferrous tetramesitylporphyrin ((TMP)Fe{sup II}) to the ferric hydroxy derivative ((TMP)Fe{sup III}OH) via (TMP)Fe{sup II}O{sub 2}, (TMP)Fe{sup III}OOFe{sup III}(TMP), and (TMP)Fe{sup IV}{double bond}O. The O-O stretching ({nu}(O{sub 2})) and Fe{sup II}-O{sub 2} stretching ({nu}(Fe{sup II}-O{sub 2})) Raman bands were simultaneously observed at 1,171 and 522 cm{sup {minus}1}, respectively, for the (TMP)Fe{sup II}O{sub 2} in toluene solution at {minus}100{degree}C for the first time. The present data together with the reported IR data for the solution samples indicate a linear inverse correlation between {nu}(O{sub 2}) and {nu}(Fe{sup II}-O{sub 2}) frequencies similar to that between {nu}(CO) and {nu}(Fe{sup II}-CO), but the data from heme proteins fall off the line.
