title: Synthesis and structural characterisation of the first N-heterocyclic carbene ligand fused to a porphyrin.
abstract: The functionalisation of two neighboring beta-pyrrolic positions of a porphyrin by a fused N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, the subsequent metallation of this external coordination site by palladium(II) and the structural characterisation of the resulting compounds are presented.
