Judicious syntheses, spectroscopic analyses, and solid state structural evidence of two structural variants (with planar geometry) of strongly aromatic hybrid [30] E-ethylene bridged hexaphyrins (2.1.1.2.1.1) exhibiting strong NIR absorption are reported. The induced correspondence of fused phenanthrene on the pyrrole moieties has led to a further red-shift of up to ∼45 nm in the neutral and protonated form of the macrocycles. The electronic nature and aromaticity of both hexaphyrins are fully supported by DFT calculations.
