Abstract: Abstract 5,15-bis(1-hydoxy-2,6-di-tert-butyl-phenyl)10,20-bis-(pentaphenyl-phenyl)phenyl porphyrin and its Nickel complex were synthesized. Oxidation with NOBF4 gave 5,15bis(1-oxo-2,6-ditertairy-butyl-phenyl)10,20-bis(pentaphenyl-phenyl)phenyl-porphodimethene and Ni bis(1-oxo-2,6-ditertairy-butyl-phenyl)10,20-bis-(pentaphenylphenyl)phenyl porphodimethene. The porphyrin conjugates were characterized by NMR, mass, and UV-visible spectroscopy for structural elucidation. The density functional… read more here.
