title: Regioselective oxidative liberation of aryl-substituted tripyrrinone metal complexes from N-confused porphyrin.
abstract: [reaction: see text] A Cu(II) complex of the first aryl-substituted tripyrrinone derivative, 14-benzoyl-5,10-diphenyl-1-oxo-tripyrrinato copper(II) (3-Cu) was obtained in the reaction of N-confused tetraphenylporphyrin (NCTPP) and Cu(OAc)(2) in refluxing toluene, and subsequent treatment with acid afforded a free tripyrrolic ligand that could bind a variety of transition metals.
