Abstract
A general design of a meso-aryl porphyrin for the formation of a 1D columnar stacking structure in the single crystal state is proposed. We found that 5,10-diphenyl- and 5,10-bis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin metal complexes (M = Zn, Ni) can stack in a complementary manner to form a 1D columnar stacking structure in the single crystals, while the corresponding freebase porphyrins displayed herringbone or dimeric orthogonal packing forms. The structural details of the obtained 1D columnar packing structures are discussed in comparison with precedented examples including 5,10-diphenylporphyrin Cu(II) and Ag(II) complexes, 5,10-diphenyl [Formula: see text]-confused porphyrin Ag(III) complex and 5,10-bis(pentafluorophenyl)corrole.
