Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
H NMR, C NMR, and EPR studies of a series of low-spin (meso- tetraalkylporphyrinato)iron(III) complexes, [Fe(TRP)(L)]X where R = (n)Pr, (c)Pr, and (i)Pr and L represents axial ligands such as imidazoles, pyridines, and cyanide, have revealed that the ground-state electron configuration of [Fe(T(n)PrP)(L)]X and [Fe(T(c)PrP)(L)]X is presented either as the common (d(xy))(d(xz),d(yz)) or as the less common (d(xz),d(yz))(d(xy)) depending on the axial ligands. The ground-state electron configuration of the isopropyl complexes [Fe(T(i)PrP)(L) ]X is, however, presented as (d(xz),d(yz))(d(xy)) regardless of the kind of axial ligands. In every case, the contribution of the (d(xz),d(yz))(d(xy)) state to the electronic ground state increases in the following order: HIm < 4-MeNPy < 2-MeIm < CN < 3-MePy < Py < 4-CNPy. Combined analysis of the C and H NMR isotropic shifts together with the EPR g values have yielded the spin densities at the porphyrin carbon and nitrogen atoms. Estimated spin densities in [Fe(T(i)PrP)(4-CNPy)], which has the purest (d(xz),d(yz))(d(xy)) ground state among the complexes examined in this study, are as follows: meso-carbon, +0.045; α-pyrrole carbon, +0.0088; β-pyrrole carbon, -0.00026; and pyrrole nitrogen, +0.057. Thus, the relatively large spin densities are on the pyrrole nitrogen and meso-carbon atoms. The result is in sharp contrast to the spin distribution in the (d(xy))(d(xz),d(yz)) type complexes; the largest spin density is at the β-pyrrole carbon atoms in bis(1-methylimidazole)(meso- tetraphenylporphyrinato)iron(III), [Fe(TPP)(1-MeIm)], as determined by Goff. The large downfield shift of the meso-carbon signal, δ +917.5 ppm at - 50 °C in [Fe(T(i)PrP)(4-CNPy)], is ascribed to the large spin densities at these carbon atoms. In contrast, the large upfield shift of the α-pyrrole carbon signal, δ -293.5 ppm at the same temperature, is caused by the spin polarization from the adjacent meso-carbon and pyrrole nitrogen atoms.
