Ethylindium (III) tetraphenylporphyrin, C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP, undergoes photodissociation of the carbon-indium bond in the excited triplet state originating from the porphyrin ligand. The quantum yield, Phi, for the photodecomposition of C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP in benzene increases with an increase in pyridine concentration: Phi = 0.046 in the absence of pyridine and Phi = 0.3 at an infinite concentration of pyridine. From the quantum yield measurements and laser photolysis studies, it is concluded that the excited triplet states, /sup 3/C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP(Py)*, are in equilibrium:/sup 3/C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP* + Py ..cap alpha.. /sup 3/C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP(Py)*, where Py is a pyridine molecule. The equilibrium constant is determined as 6.45 X 10/sup 2/ M/sup -1/ at 20/sup 0/C. The increase in the quantum yield for the photodecomposition of C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP in the presence of pyridine is interpreted in terms of the facile dissociation of the carbon-indium bond in /sup 3/C/sub 2/H/sub 5/In/sup III/TPP(Py)* assisted by the axial pyridine.
