Article Synopsis
- Pyrrocorphin is a unique compound with an air-sensitive structure that has a reduced hexahydroporphyrin core, and pyrrolidine-fused variants are less sensitive to air.
- The study involved creating a Ni(II) complex from pyrrocorphin, which displayed interesting bond characteristics and was fully characterized using various advanced techniques.
- Results indicated that as the porphyrin ring structure is reduced, the binding affinity of pyridine to the Ni(II) complex increases significantly, establishing a new order of binding strength compared to other known porphyrinoids.
