Nanocomposites with bimetallic monolayers of porphyrins were prepared. The well ordered metalloporphyrin monolayers covalently linked to the gold surface produce an important increase of the B band (similar to 400 nm) shifted 20 nm relative to that of the related high-spin iron(III) complexes in solution. The position of the B band in the bimetallic architectures is highly dependent on the relative amount of the two porphyrins, showing the most significant shift for the SiO2/APTES/AuNp/Fe-TPyP&M-TPyP (1:1) (30 nm, M = Ni(II) or Cu(II)). Resonance Raman based on the oxidation state marker bands (1553, 1354, and 390 cm(-1)) indicates that Fe-TPyP attached on gold nanoparticles adopts a low-spin Fe(II) conformation, which changes to Fe(II) intermediate spin or a low-spin Fe(III) in the presence of Cu-TPyP or Ni-TPyP. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering studies confirmed the hypothesis. MALDI-TOF analysis of the composites on gold nanoparticles was very useful in the detection of oxygenated forms of the metal complexes.
