It's the first one. Although to be more appropriate/concise, it'd be better as:
"I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as..."

The first one is correct cause you are explaining the purpose, the aim you take the opportunity (in order) to do something else , in this case introduce yourself.

The first one is correct because after the verb take have to be added the proposition "to' and it is wrong if it is replaced by of.
