Accelerated Bergman cyclization of porphyrinic-enediynes

Abstract

The Bergman cyclization of simple diethynylporphyrinic-enediynes exhibits a double activation barrier to the formation of Bergman cyclized product. Addition of H-atom acceptor accelerates the formation of the picenoporphyrin, indicating that the second barrier is rate limiting.
