New porphyrinoids: vanadyl(IV) complexes of meso-aryl-substituted corrphycene and 10-oxocorrole ligands.
Rare vanadyl corrphycene and vanadyl 10-oxocorrole complexes were obtained via an oxidative macrocyclization process by the treatment of 6,6'-di-p-tolyl-2,2'-bidipyrrin with VO(acac)2 in a hot dioxygen atmosphere. The geometric and electronic structures of the new porpyhrinoids were determined and showed the dependency of the spectral pattern from the aromaticity of the macrocyclic ligand.
