Linear fully conjugated meso-aryl pentapyrrins

A meso-2,6-dichlorophenyl pentapyrrin was prepared using a modified method for dipyrrane synthesis followed by simple DDQ oxidation. The fully conjugated structures formed via redox inter-conversions were studied using crystallographic as well as observed and calculated spectral data.

The structures of fully conjugated meso-2,6-dichlorophenyl pentapyrrin exhibiting different π-conjugated networks were studied using crystallographic as well as observed and calculated spectral data.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
