The first FeNO octabromocorroles have been synthesized including four β-octabromo-meso-tris(p-X-phenyl)corrole derivatives Fe[Br8TpXPC](NO) (X = CF3, H, CH3, OCH3) and the β-octabromo-meso-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole complex, Fe[Br8TPFPC](NO). The last complex, which proved amenable to single-crystal X-ray structure determination, exhibits the geometry parameters: Fe-N(O) 1.643(8) Å, N-O 1.

In spite of significant applications as starting materials for a variety of metallocorrole derivatives, free-base β-octabromo-meso-triarylcorroles continue to be viewed as inaccessible. The reasons range from the need for tedious column-chromatographic purification to limitations of the reductive demetallation protocol for selected systems. Here we report that column chromatography may be entirely avoided for a number of β-octabromo-meso-tris(p-X-phenyl)corrole derivatives, where X=CF3, NO2, F, H, CH3, and OCH3; instead, analytically pure products may be obtained by recrystallization from chloroform/methanol.

The molecular structures of free-base corroles are illustrative of a variety of bonded and nonbonded interactions including aromaticity, intra- as well as intermolecular hydrogen bonding, steric interactions among multiple NH hydrogens within a congested central cavity, and the effects of peripheral substituents. Against this backdrop, an X-ray structure of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octabromo-5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole, H3[Br8TPFPCor], corresponding to a specific tautomer, has been found to exhibit the strongest nonplanar distortions observed to date for any free-base corrole structure. Two adjacent N-protonated pyrrole rings are tilted with respect to each other by approximately 97.
