New Synthetic Strategy for Diporphyrins: Pinacol Coupling-Rearrangement

A new peak for porphyrins! A new approach to methylene‐bridged diporphyrins has been explored, which consists of SmI2‐mediated pinacol coupling followed by BF3‐assisted pinacol‐to‐pinacolone rearrangement (see scheme). Diporphyrin 1 can further undergo multiple, dehydrative CC bond formation to yie...

Summary:A new peak for porphyrins! A new approach to methylene‐bridged diporphyrins has been explored, which consists of SmI2‐mediated pinacol coupling followed by BF3‐assisted pinacol‐to‐pinacolone rearrangement (see scheme). Diporphyrin 1 can further undergo multiple, dehydrative CC bond formation to yield tetrahydropentalene‐fused porphyrin dimer 2 with a rigid gable structure.
