A carbazole-containing porphyrinoid: synthesis and oxidation to the porphyrin-state.
Carbazole-containing porphyrinoid  was synthesised for the first time via Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Oxidation with MnO(2) yielded its porphyrin-state  featuring macrocyclic aromaticity in exchange for the loss of the resonance energies of the benzene rings.
