Conformational and spectroscopic properties of π-extended, bipyrrole-fused rubyrin and sapphyrin derivatives

Abstract

Two new expanded porphyrins, naphthorubyrin and naphthosapphyrin, were synthesized. The π-extended rubyrin was isolated and structurally characterized in its monoprotonated form. The sapphyrin congener undergoes pyrrole inversion as a function of the protonation state. These conformational effects are reflected in the spectroscopic features, including the excited singlet state lifetimes.
