- Fused porphyrinoids have received increasing interest in light of their extended conjugation and unique coordination behavior. On the basis of our previously reported multiply fused pentaphyrin isomers 1 and 2, a novel isomer 3 has been synthesized in this work. 3 possesses a hexacyclic fused moiety with a nearly coplanar CCNN cavity involving an inverted pyrrole, which is slightly different from the CNNN ones of 1 and 2 involving an N-confused pyrrole. 1-3 possess cavities with three depronatable protons and thus they all can generate Cu(III) complexes. However, only 3Cu is stable under ambient conditions. On the other hand, 3 remains intact upon treatment with Pd(II) ions, while 1 and 2 could undergo structural rearrangement to accommodate Pd(II), affording 1Pd and 2Pd accompanied by the formation of a lactone ring and the addition of a methoxy group, respectively. Compared with the free bases, the complexes show distinct aromaticity and more intense near-infrared (NIR) absorption up to ca. 1600, 1170, and 1500 nm, respectively. The results indicate that the subtle modification of the linking modes between the pyrrolic units in the fused pentaphyrinoids is effective in modulating the coordination behavior for synthesizing complexes with tunable aromaticity and NIR absorption.

- A bidipyrrin nickel complex was synthesized in a high yield by oxidatively coupling between the ligands in the corresponding 2:1 (L:M) type of dipyrrin nickel complex, and further demetallation afforded the free bidipyrrin ligand. Interestingly, when treating the bidipyrrin nickel complex or the free bidipyrrin with FeCl3 in CH2Cl2/MeOH, the symmetric di-alpha-methoxy bidipyrrin could be synthesized in a high yield, with two methoxy groups attached to the terminal pyrrolic alpha-positions. Moreover, the coordination of the unsubstituted and disubstituted bidipyrrins with Zn(OAc)(2),2H(2)O afforded two similar M2L2 type of bidipyrrin helical complexes with different ligand conformations and different Zn center dot center dot center dot Zn distances of 5.353 and 3.357 angstrom, respectively. The difference in the conformations may be related to the electrostatic repulsions between the methoxy substituents. These results indicate that the dyes based on helical bidipyrrin zinc complexes with tunable structures and photophysical properties may be developed simply by modulating the terminal alpha-substituents.

- Oxidative ring closure of linear oligopyrroles is one of the synthetic approaches to novel porphyrinoids with dinuclear coordination sites and helical chirality. The spatial arrangement of the pyrrolic groups of octapyrrole (P8) affected the position of the intramolecular oxidative coupling of the pyrrolic units; tripyrrin-armed isosmaragdyrin analogue (1) containing a beta,beta-linked bipyrrole moiety was synthesized regioselectively in a high yield by using FeCl3. Ni-II-coordination at the armed tripyrrin site of 1 allowed the formation of diastereomeric helical twisted complexes (2A and 2B) and succeeding Cu-II-coordination at the macrocyclic core afforded heterodinuclear Ni-II/Cu-II-complexes (3A and 3B). Each of them comprised a pair of separable enantiomers, exhibiting P- and M-helices, respectively. Notably, diastereomeric interconversion from 2A to 2B was quantitatively achieved as a consequence of helical transformation under acidic conditions.

- Expanded porphyrins have been attracting increasing attention owing to their unique optical and electrochemical properties as well as switchable aromaticity. Toward material applications, regioselective functionalization of the expanded porphyrins at their periphery is indeed challenging due to the presence of multiple reactive sites. Herein, a set of regioselective halogenated isomers (L5-Br-A/B/C) of neo-confused isosmaragdyrin (L5) are synthesized by a combination of the halogenation reaction of L5 and sequential macrocycleto-macrocycle transformation reactions of its halogenated isomers. On this basis, the regioselectively functionalized isosmaragdyrins are utilized as building blocks for constructing multichromophoric porphyrinoids, specifically, heterodyads L5-ZnP-A/B/C, in which a common zinc porphyrin is linked at three different pyrrolic positions of isosmaragdyrins, respectively, by Sonogashira coupling reactions. The highly efficient energy cascade from porphyrin to isosmaragdyrin is elucidated using steady-state/time-resolved spectroscopies and theoretical calculations. Notably, the energy transfer processes from the porphyrin to the isosmaragdyrin moieties as well as the excitation energy transfer rates in L5-ZnP-A/B/C are highly dependent on the linking sites by through-bond and Forster-type resonance energy transfer mechanisms. The site-selective functionalization and subsequent construction of a set of heterodyads of the expanded porphyrinoid would provide opportunities for developing new materials for optoelectronic applications.

- A hybrid thia-norhexaphyrin comprising a directly linked N-confused pyrrole and thiophene unit (1) revealed unique macrocycle transformations to afford multiply inner-annulated aromatic macrocycles. Oxidation with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone triggered a cleavage of the C-S bond of the thiophene unit, accompanied with skeletal rearrangement to afford unique pi-conjugated products: a thiopyrrolo-pentaphyrin embedded with a pyrrolo[1,2]isothiazole (2), a sulfur-free pentaphyrin incorporating an indolizine moiety (3), and a thiopyranyltriphyrinoid containing a 2H-thiopyran unit (4). Furthermore, 2 underwent desulfurization reactions to afford a fused pentaphyrin containing a pyrrolizine moiety (5) under mild conditions. Using expanded porphyrin scaffolds, oxidative thiophene cleavage and desulfurization of the hitherto unknown N-confused core-modified macrocycles would be a practical approach for developing unique polypyrrolic aromatic macrocycles.

- To further enrich the coordination chemistry of hexaphyrins and probe the underlying property-structural correlations, N-confused dithiahexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.0) (1) with 26 pi-electron H & uuml;ckel aromaticity was synthesized. Based on its unprecedented two unsymmetrical cavities, five palladium complexes 2, 3, 4-Ph, 4-Cl and 5 have been successfully synthesized under various coordinations. Thus, two mono-Pd(II) complexes 2 and 3 with the Pd(II) atom coordinated in the two different cavities were obtained by treating 1 with palladium reagents PdCl2, and (PPh3)(2)PdCl2 respectively. On this basis, bis-Pd(II) complexes 4-Ph and 4-Cl were synthesized by treating 2 and 3 with (PPh3)(2)PdCl2 and PdCl2, respectively. As a result, both 4-Ph and 4-Cl contain two Pd(II) atoms coordinated within the two cavities, with one of the Pd(II) atoms further coordinated to a triphenylphosphine ligand in addition to an anionic ancillary ligand of Ph- and Cl-, respectively. Notably, a further contracted mono-Pd(II) complex 5 was synthesized by treating 1 with Pd(PPh3)(4) by eliminating one of the meso-carbon atoms together with the corresponding C6F5 moiety. These complexes present tunable 26 pi aromaticity and NIR absorption up to 1060 nm. This work provides an effective approach for developing distinctive porphyrinoid Pd(II) complexes from a single porphyrinoid, without resorting to tedious syntheses of a series of porphyrinoid ligands.

- The recently synthesized twisted thia-norhexaphyrin and its multiply annulated polypyrrolic derivatives have been studied computationally. Gauge-including magnetically induced current calculations predict a global nonaromatic character of the initial thia-norhexaphyrin due to the highly-twisted conformation of the macrocycle. Upon the oxidation of the thia-norhexaphyrin four multiply annulated polypyrrolic aromatic macrocycles are formed for which the global aromatic character is confirmed in agreement with experimentally measured H-1 NMR spectra. The calculation of the proton chemical shifts for the studied compounds by direct comparison with the tetramethylsilane standard leads to a significant mean absolute error. At the same time a linear regression procedure for the two selected groups of protons (CH and NH protons) provides much better values of calculated chemical shifts and tight correlation with experiment. The separate consideration of NH protons is motivated by the numerous intermolecular hydrogen bonds in which the protons are involved, which induce considerable upfield shifts, leading to a significant underestimation of the corresponding chemical shifts. Such a selected correlation can be used for accurate estimation of proton chemical shifts of the related porphyrinoids. Bader's theory of Atoms in Molecules has been applied for the studied twisted thia-norhexaphyrin and its multiply annulated polypyrrolic derivatives to characterize intramolecular H-bonds and other non-covalent interactions.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Tandem Diels-Alder reactions of masked porphyrindienes (i.e., sulfolenoporphyrins) with benzoquinones and stilbenes, followed by aromatization, have been developed to load porphyrin with mixed annulation units (i.e., terphenyl and naphthoquinone), furnishing the low-symmetry pi-extended porphyrins (DxAy) with push-pull skeletons. All low-symmetrical chromophores display panchromatic absorption spectra, which look like a spectral combination of symmetrical congeners (D4/A4) in a certain ratio. Among them, tD2A2 with trans-arrangement of push/pull units possesses the largest maximum centered at 766 nm with the onset around 900 nm. The fusion of the electron-deficient naphthoquinone moiety on the porphyrin core results in the approximately quantitative regulation of the E-ox1 and HOMOs (i.e., 0.10-0.13 V increase for the E-ox1 and 0.14-0.16 eV decrease for the HOMOs per naphthoquinone unit). In brief, this work provides a new way to construct low-symmetry pi-extended porphyrins with tunable properties resorting to the ratios and locations of the annulated push-pull units.

- An N-confused hexapyrrolic phlorinoid 1 and its isomer N-fused hexapyrrolic phlorinoid 2 were synthesized through [4 + 2] condensation. Both 1 and 2 can be readily transformed into N-confused hexapyrrolic phlorinone 3 under aerobic conditions. Coordination of 1 with Cu(acac)(2) afforded two different mono-Cu(II) complexes 4 and 5 with CNNN and ONNN coordination environments, respectively. The NIR absorption bands can be effectively modulated up to 1265 nm through the oxidation, fusion, and metalation reactions.

- Oxidation of a thiophene-hexapyrrane hybrid S-P-6 afforded a stable conjugated open-chain thiaheptapyrrolic helix 1 with the terminal thiophene and confused pyrrole units lying at a long distance that is adverse for further cyclization. Chelation of 1 with copper(II) ion afforded 1-Cu, which exhibits more distant terminal units. Interestingly, further oxidation of 1 triggered an intramolecular C-N fusion reaction to afford a unique 5,5,5-tricyclic fused linear thiaheptapyrrin 2, with the two terminals positioned in proximity, which favors the oxidative ring-closure reaction to give a unique 5,5,5-tricyclic fused thiaheptaphyrin (1.1.1.1.1.1.0) 3 under air. The inner-fusion strategy for positioning the reactive sites in proximity to promote oxidative cyclization offers a new approach for constructing large porphyrinoids through conjugated oligopyrrins without the assistance of metal ions.

- In the past decades, porphyrin analogues have attracted increasing attention in light of their unique properties and potential applications in various areas. In this work, novel nonconjugated thiophene-embedded N-confused homoporphyrins 1 and 2 as well as a fully-conjugated N-fused homoporphyrin 3 have been prepared through acid-catalyzed condensation reactions followed by oxidation. Both 1 and 2 comprise two meso-sp3-carbon atoms. However, they are insensitive to the air or common oxidants. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that 2 adopts a highly distorted boat-like conformation, with the NH moieties of two pyrrolic units pointing outwards and an O atom attached to the alpha position of the N-confused pyrrole unit. As a result, hydrogen-bonded dimers are formed through the intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the lactam-like moieties. In contrast to the highly distorted structure of 2, N-fused homoporphyrin 3 contains a unique 5,5,5-tricyclic fused ring, and thus demonstrates a relatively coplanar conformation except one inverted pyrrole unit. Because of the different structural characters, 3 exhibits F- binding behavior distinct from that of 1 and 2.

- A doubly confused thiapentapyrrane NSP-5 was synthesized by acid-catalysed condensation. Subsequent oxidation with DDQ did not afford the expected thiasapphyrin-like product. Instead, two tetrapyrrolic macrocycles, i.e. neo-N-confused phlorin (1) and N-confused phlorin-II (2) were obtained in the yields of 14% and 18%, respectively. The compounds were characterized by NMR, HRMS, and X-ray diffraction analyses. Single crystal structures clearly reveal that the thienyl units are not embedded into the macrocycles, but appended as meso-substituents, and the C-meso-N and C-meso-C-beta cyclization modes can be clearly revealed by the crystal structures of 1 and 2, respectively. The observation that the thienyl unit is not involved in oxidative cyclization may be related to the relatively low reactivity of the thiophene moiety compared with the more electron-rich pyrrole unit. These results indicate that oxidative cyclization of linear thiaoligopyrranes containing terminal thiophene units may be developed as an effective approach for synthesizing nonconjugated macrocycles like phlorin analogues.

- Oxidation of thienyl-blocked bilane and pentapyrrane afforded chain length dependent products of the symmetric dimer D1 and the thienyloligopyrrin-appended pentaphyrin analogue P2, respectively, with the latter formed by simultaneous dimerization and cyclization. Coordination of D1 and P2 with Cu(II) afforded di-and monometallic complexes D1-Cu2 and P2 -Cu, respectively. These compounds exhibit distinct NIR absorption, with the absorption tail of D1-Cu2 extended to ca. 1900 nm despite its smaller conjugation framework than that of P2 -Cu.

- With the purpose to develop long chain-conjugated oligopyrrin-like compounds and their metal complexes, and thus achieve tunable near-infrared absorption, a dithienyl-blocked hexapyrrane S-2-P-6 was synthesized by acid-catalyzed [2+4+2] condensation, followed by oxidation with DDQ to afford dithiaoctapyrrin 1, and its mononuclear metal complexes 1-Cu and 1-Zn were synthesized by treating 1 with Cu(II) and Zn(II) acetates. All the compounds were systematically characterized by NMR/EPR, and HRMS. The crystal structures revealed that 1 adopts a double hook-like conformation. Whereas, both complexes 1-Cu and 1-Zn adopt spiral-hook hybrid conformations, showing smaller interplanar angles between the rings within the spiral part, compared with those in the hook-like counterpart of molecule 1, which is favorable for red-shifting the absorption. As expected, the absorption band edges for complexes 1-Cu and 1-Zn are red-shifted to ca. 1560 nm, compared with that of 1260 nm observed for 1.

- Porphyrinoids have attracted wide interest because of their vital roles in biological processes and fascinating structural and functional characters. In this work, a doubly N-confused pentapyrrane precursor N2C–P5 has been synthesized with terminal pyrrole ring A and middle pyrrole C incorporated in the N-confused mode. On this basis, pentapyrrin 1 and sapphyrin 2 have been synthesized by oxidizing N2C–P5 with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ). Both 1 and 2 possess a [5.5.5]-tricyclic fused ring involving pyrrole B and the neighboring confused pyrrole C. Meanwhile, the formation of 2 involves ring closure between the terminal rings A and E. Notably, 2 exists as a diradical showing a half-field signal in the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum and a singlet ground state with a negative singlet-triplet energy gap of −0.50 kcal/mol. Excellent thermal stability has been observed for 2, which may be related to its large π-conjugated framework involving the fused structure. On this basis, 1 and 2 were treated with Cu(acac)2 to afford Cu(II) complexes 3 and 4, respectively. As a result, an acetylacetonyl moiety is attached at the terminal pyrrole ring E to afford an NNNO coordination environment for complex 3, and the sapphyrin macrocycle of 2 has been cleaved between rings A and B to afford a fused pentapyrrin ligand, furnishing an NNNN coordination environment for complex 4, in which a pentafluorophenyl-ketal group generated during the ring cleavage reaction is attached to ring A, and it can be hydrolyzed to the corresponding pentafluorobenzoyl substituent to afford complex 5. Compared with free bases 1 and 2, complexes 3−5 show more intense low-energy near-infrared (NIR) absorption bands at ca. 791, 926 and 907 nm, respectively. This work provides an effective approach for the syntheses of linear and macrocyclic oligopyrroles with intriguing structures and properties by oxidizing oligopyrranes with precisely designed numbers and positions of N-confused pyrroles.

Expanded N-Confused Phlorin : A Platform for a Multiply Fused Polycyclic Ring System via Oxidation within the Macrocycle

- Novel interrupted pi-conjugated macrocycles derived from expanded porphyrinoids were synthesized, and their unique reactivity was investigated in this work. The specific porphyrin analogs, so-called phlorins and isoporphyrins, possess a meso-sp(3) methylene moiety, showing inner 3NH and 1NH pyrrolic cores, respectively, and extended near-infrared (NIR) absorption. Expanded N-confused pentapyrrolic phlorin analog 1 bears an interrupted cyclic pi-conjugated system that is featured by a distinct higher HOMO and a lower LUMO. Oxidation of 1 allowed structural transformations through the expanded isoporphyrin-like species 2. One of the representative products is a spiro-carbon-bridged multiply N-fused product 3 comprising a fused [5.6.5.7.6.5]-hexacyclic ring obtained by oxidation with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone. When magic blue was used as the oxidant, an aromatic N-confused pentaphyrin 4 was obtained via migration of one of the meso-phenyl groups to the beta-position of the neighboring pyrrolic ring. By employing the flexible cavity of 1 for metal coordination, Pd(II) complexation occurred with a specific meso oxygenation to give a bimetallic complex 5. In contrast to the rich oxidation reactions, reduction of 1 with NaBH4 resulted in the regioselective nucleophilic hydrogen substitution reaction at the para position of one of the meso-C6F5 groups. These results provide a practical approach for synthesizing novel interrupted or aromatic pi-conjugated frameworks showing NIR absorptions.

- Sapphyrin is a pentapyrrolic expanded porphyrin with a 22π aromatic character. Herein, we report the synthesis of a 20π antiaromatic sapphyrin isomer 1 by oxidative cyclization of a pentapyrrane precursor P5 with a terminal β-linked pyrrole. The resulting isomer 1, containing a mis-linked bipyrrole unit in the skeleton, exhibits a reactivity for further oxidation due to the distinct antiaromatic electronic structure, affording a fused macrocycle 2, possessing a spiro-carbon-containing [5.6.5.6]-tetracyclic structure. Subsequent treatment with an acid afforded a weakly aromatic pyrrolone-appended N-confused corrole 3, and thermal fusion gave a [5.6.5.7]-tetracyclic-ring-embedded 14π aromatic triphyrin(2.1.1) analog 4. The cyclization at the mis-linked pyrrole moiety of P5 played a crucial role in synthesizing the antiaromatic porphyrinoid susceptible to facile transformation to novel porphyrinoids with variable aromaticity.

- Suitable conformations and proper alignment of complex natural macrocycles are essential for achieving their unique properties. However, such artificial macrocycle prototypes are still limited due to synthetic difficulties. In this respect, directly linked porphyrin analog dimers display tunable conformations and intriguing properties, and thus, they may be employed as a class of promising platforms. Herein, we report that one-pot oxidative dimerization of thiahydrosapphyrin 1 yields dimers, 2(ant)i and 2(syn), comprising a transoid-oriented plate-like bipyrrolo[1,2-a] indolylidene. The thiophene-containing tetrapyrrole arching subunits in 2 lie at the opposite (anti) and same (syn) sides of the plate, respectively. Meanwhile, multiply fused cisoid-orientated dimer 3 was also obtained; a polycyclic pyrrolo-bridged bipyrroloindole derivative tethered with fully pi-conjugated bridges was formed. Notably, the anti-dimer 2(anti) underwent subsequent oxidative fusion to furnish a further-fused [6.5.5.7.5.5.5.6]-octacyclic compound 4(anti). In contrast, the syn-orientated 2(syn) could not be further fused due to the long distance between the potential reaction sites. This study provides a unique approach to the fused dimeric porphyrin analogs for potential near-infrared optical materials by a simple oxidation reaction. It also reveals the importance of conformation-modulated reactivity for constructing complex porphyrin arrays.

Twisted-Planar-Twisted expanded porphyrinoid dimer as a rudimentary reaction-based methanol indicator

- Directly linked porphyrin dimers have attracted considerable attention because of their intriguing electronic features. Most emphasis has been placed on either dimers with large dihedral angles between the constituent planar monomeric subunits or those with overall planarity, referred to as "Planar-Twisted-Planar" and "Planar-Planar-Planar", respectively. Herein, we report a "Twisted-Planar-Twisted" framework, the hexaphyrin dimer D that exists in a trans configuration. Treatment of D with MeOH affords two isomeric dimers, MD1 and MD2, both of which incorporate a methoxy moiety and exist in cis orientations with respect to the tethering linkage. The methanol-promoted conversion is accompanied by a readily discernible color change from green to brown and is not induced to an appreciable level by other alcohols. Dimer D thus acts as a rudimentary, albeit highly selective, reaction-based methanol indicator. This work provides a promising approach for constructing reaction-based chemosensors using porphyrinoid dimers of nonplanar subunits with biased reactivity. Directly linked porphyrin dimers show intriguing electronic features but emphasis has been placed on planar monomeric units. Here, the authors report a Twisted-Planar-Twisted framework which can undergo a cis-trans transformation accompanied by a colour change in presence of methanol, making this framework applicable as a methanol sensor.

- Acenequinone-fused porphyrins show remarkable long wavelength absorption, low-lying LUMO orbital and uniform pi,pi-stacking, enabling the potential applications as opto-electronic materials and catalysts. At present, the synthesis of large quinone fused porphyrins remains challenging. To address this, the cycloaddition reactions of naphthoquinone-fused porphyrin (Ni4NQ), followed by oxidative aromatization, have been employed. Through Diels-Alder reaction with perylenes in the presence of chloranil, a series of perylenequinone-fused porphyrins (1Ni-4Ni) have been synthesized with an overall yield above 70 %. Later, the tri-adduct 3Ni underwent 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrile oxide and the following DDQ oxidation to outcome the unsymmetrical tetra-adduct 5Ni. Although the peripheral perylenequinones fusion in 1Ni-4Ni has limited impact on the absorption with respect to the naphthoquinone-fused counterpart Ni4NQ, introduction of an isoxazole via 1,3-cycloaddition (5Ni) leads to a bathochromic Q band. This result has been rationalized by theoretical calculations. Additionally, the incorporation of perylenequinone units gives rise to intense intermolecular pi,pi-stacking and CH-pi interactions within the crystal packing. The self-assembly behavior using a good/bad solvent strategy are structural dependence. The tri-perylenequinone-fused porphyrins 3Ni formed spherical architecture, while tetraperylenequinone-fused porphyrin 4Ni afforded cubic or petal-type assemblies.

- A corrorin parasitized hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.0) 1 was synthesized by [4 + 4] condensation, and subsequent treatment with PbO2 afforded hexaphyrin 2 appended with a dipyrrinone moiety via regioselective opening of the corrorin ring. In contrast, oxidation of the corresponding corrorin-N-confused hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.0) hybrid 3 afforded only a keto adduct 4. As a result, the planarity and aromaticity of the hexaphyrin moiety can be modulated.

- A pyrrolylmethylene appended corrorin 1 was synthesized and coordinated with [Rh(CO)2Cl]2 to afford 1-Rh with unique RhI-eta 2-CC bonding in addition to the coordination of the dipyrrin-like unit and a carbonyl ligand. Further oxidation of 1 afforded 2, exhibiting a hydrocorrorinone core, and it can be further transformed into pyrrolo[3,2c]pyridine incorporated hemiporphycene analogue 3 upon treatment with HOAc. The side chain modifies the reactivity of corrorin and effectively tunes the NIR absorption of the resulting porphyrinoids.

- Thiahexaphyrinone 1 and thia-dipyrrin-appended corrorin 2 have been synthesized. Surprisingly, further oxidation of compound 2 with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) in dichloromethane afforded dimer 3 with two molecules of compound 2 linked at the alpha-carbon atoms of the thienyl units. Treatment of compound 3 with DDQ in MeOH and SnCl2 in tetrahydrofuran/H2O afforded the dimethoxy-attached dimer 4 and hydrogenated dihydroxy-attached dimer 5, respectively. These results provide the first examples for synthesizing thiophene-linked porphyrinoid dimers with tunable near-infrared absorption and chirality.

- A hexapyrrane P6 with a terminal N-confused pyrrole was synthesized by acid-catalyzed [3+3] condensation followed by oxidation with DDQ, which did not afford the expected N-confused hexaphyrin. In stead, a rearranged product, i.e., α-dipyrrin appended N-confused porphyrin 1 was obtained in a yield of 46%. Chelation of 1 with Pt(II) afforded the peripheral complex 1-Pt, which was further coordinated with Rh(I) in the cavity to afford the corresponding bimetallic complex 1-Pt-Rh. Both 1-Pt and 1-Pt-Rh exhibit split Soret-like bands and noticeable Q-like bands tailing to the NIR region up to ca. 1200 nm. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of 1 and 1-Pt revealed that the peripheral coordination of Pt(II) slightly modifies the interplanar angle between the porphyrin macrocycle and the dipyrrin unit, which may modulate the absorption spectra. The results of this work compose an interesting example of synthesizing porphyrinoids appended with conjugated peripheral chains by the oxidative ring closure reaction of an oligopyrrane containing a terminal N-confused pyrrole, and such compounds may be used for both inner and peripheral coordination to afford complexes with tunable NIR absorption.

- In this work, a novel compound 2-(3,5,6-trichloro-1,4-benzoquinon-2-yl)-neo-fused hexaphyrin has been prepared from tetrachloroquinone and neo-fused hexaphyrin through a substitution reaction. The chemical structure of the compound has been characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), high-resolution mass spectrum, UV-Vis spectrum, and X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure reveals that the quinonyl unit is almost coplanar with the adjacent N-confused pyrrole unit. Because of the cooperative effect of extended conjugation and the intramolecular charge transfer effect related to the strong electron-withdrawing character of the quinonyl unit, the absorption of 2 is dramatically extended to ca. 1280 nm.
