Treatment of hexakis(pentafluorophenyl)-substituted [26]hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1) (1) with CuCl in the presence of pyridine and molecular oxygen led to formation of doubly N-confused [26]hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1) 2 in a moderate yield through an unprecedented double pyrrolic rearrangement. Macrocycle 2 has been shown to serve as an effective bis-metal-coordinating ligand and exhibits attractive optical properties such as a sharp Soret-like band at 566 nm and low-energy fluorescence at 1058 nm.

The free base form of doubly meso-α linked N-confused porphyrin (NCP) tape 3 was successfully synthesized via Ir(I) mediated intramolecular coupling. The following silver complexation afforded the Ag(III) complex of doubly meso-α linked NCP tape 4. While 3 exhibited 38π aromatic characters, 4 exhibited not only 18π aromatic NCP-type characteristics but also a decent antiaromatic contribution of 12π pyrrolo[2,3-f]indole segment, as probed by NMR spectra, absorption spectra, and DFT calculations.

Organometallic copper(II) complex of --methyl N-confused pyrrole-bridged doubly -methyl N-confused hexaphyrin.

Synthesis, spectroscopic and theoretical characterization of a hitherto unknown - N-confused -methylpyrrole-bridged doubly N-confused hexaphyrin (molecule 5) and its organometallic copper(II) complex (molecule 6) are reported herein. The absence of Q-type bands in the UV-Vis spectrum and the high chemical shifts of the inner proton signals of 5 suggest its globally non-aromaticity. The spectroscopic evidence of non-aromaticity for 5 and the paramagnetic nature of 6, are fully supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the UV-Vis spectra, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) -tensor parameters, and the magnetically induced current density strengths obtained with the gauge-including magnetically induced currents (GIMIC) method.

As isomers of the regular porphyrins, N-confused porphyrins have attracted extensive attention of chemists because of their unique chemical structures, chemical reactivities, and physical properties, which result in their promising applications in the fields of catalytic chemistry, biochemistry and material science. Typically, N-confused porphyrins are synthesized via acid catalyzed condensation and following oxidation during which lactams are often formed as the byproducts. Here we report doubly N-confused and ring-contracted [24]hexaphyrin(1.
