Abstract

AbstractAn N‐confused phlorin isomer bearing a dipyrrin moiety at the α‐position of the confused pyrrole ring (1) was synthesized. PdII and BIII coordination at the peripheral prodigiosin‐like moiety of 1 afforded the corresponding complexes 2 and 3. Reflux of 2 in triethylamine (TEA) converted the meso‐phenyl into the PdII‐coordinating phenoxy group to afford 4. Under the same reaction conditions, TEA was linked to the α‐position of the dipyrrin unit in 3 as an N,N‐diethylaminovinyl group to afford 5. Furthermore, peripheral coordination of BIII in 3 and 5 improved the planarity of the phlorin macrocycle and thus facilitated the coordination of AgIII at the inner cavity to afford 3‐Ag and 5‐Ag, respectively. These results provide an effective approach for developing unique porphyrinoids through peripheral coordination.
