Abstract
Dimers of dianionic porphyrins were formed via template-directed self-assembly on a tetracationic macrocycle. Single-crystal X-ray structural analyses revealed that [5,10-bis(4-sulfonatophenyl)-15,20-diphenylporphyrinato]nickel(II) (Ni(II)TPPS2A2−) or [5,15-bis(4-sulfonatophenyl)-15,20-diphenylporphyrinato]nickel(II) (Ni(II)TPPS2O2−) formed discrete J-type slipped cofacial dimers, which are structural analogues of a typical natural cofacial porphyrin dimer, on the tetracationic template in the crystals.
