The surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of five p-amino-substituted tetraphenylporphyrins were investigated at a silver electrode in the aprotic solvent acetonitrile. Good quality spectra were obtained for both the neutral porphyrin and its first reduction product, the radical anion. Fluorescence interference from the porphyrin was completely quenched by the surface. SERS spectra allowed for the identification of two geometries of the adsorbate. Cyclic voltammetry and UV-vis thin-layer spectroelectrochemistry were used to substantiate information obtained by SERS. The utility of SERS as a technique for identifying electrochemical products in a nonaqueous environment, where elucidation of the electrode mechanism is simpler and radical anions are more stable, is demonstrated.
