Abstract
X-ray absorption spectroscopy has been employed to study in situ the changes in the local structure of the central atom of Fe-Phthalocyanine (FePC) by the adsorption of pyridine. A dipole-forbidden (1s→3d) pre-edge structure of the Fe K-edge has been observed which indicates the D4h symmetry of FePC. This 1s→3d transition is missing in the spectrum of the FePC-pyridine complex. The disappearance of the pre-edge structure is interpreted by the adsorption of two pyridine molecules to the FePC molecular plane leading to a change of the fourfold symmetry into an octahedral geometry. The absence, of a chemical shift of the Fe K-edge indicates that the complex has been formed without a net transfer of electron charge between the central atom and the pyridine ligands.
