Metal Template Syntheses of Porphin and Tetraazaannulenes.
Abstract
Metallophthalocyanines, metalloporphins, and metallotetraazaannulenes are important as biological models for oxygen complexation, as potential fuel cell catalysts and as tumor localizers to name a few uses. However, their synthesis in high yields is still an area of continuing research. Many metallophthalocyanines can be formed by tetramerization of phthalontrile with metal or metal salt. Numerous metals and metal salts can be used. The metalloporphins, on the other hand, are synthesized from the porphin and a metal salt. Only a few reports exist of the synthesis of a metalloporphin directly from a pyrrole, an aldehyde, and a metal salt.
