Facile preparation of doubly dipyrrolylquinoxaline-bridged expanded porphyrins. Synthesis and structural characterization of an unprecedented [20]tetraphyrin-(2.1.2.1).
[structure: see text] An unprecedented V-shape (2.1.2.1) expanded porphyrin incorporating an extended pi-conjugated system is described. Its efficient synthesis relied on the use of a new peralkyl tetrapyrrolylquinoxaline building block that constitutes the ideal intermediate for the versatile preparation of new quinoxaline-containing macrocycles.
