Synthesis of beta-Mono-, Tetra-, and Octasubstituted Sterically Bulky Porphyrins via Suzuki Cross Coupling.
beta-Mono-, tetra-, and octasubstituted tetramesitylporphyrins were prepared in good yields by Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of beta-bromotetramesitylporphyrins with aryl- and alkylboronic acids.
