Progress on the Synthesis of Meso-Substituted Metallotetrabenzporphyrins
Abstract
A number of meso-substituted zinc tetrabenzporphyrins were prepared by the reaction of isoindole, zinc acetate, and an aromatic aldehyde. The reaction products were purified and identified by thin-lay chromatography (TLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Additional characterization by NMR and UV/VIS spectroscopy contributed to the establishment of structures for the new compounds. The presence of multiple products was observed with HPLC and the possibility of incomplete meso-substitution as a factor for this observation is discussed. Keywords: Metallotetrabenzporhyrin, Chromatography, Isoindole, Meso Tetrabenzporphyrin, Spectroscopy, Zinc compounds, Synthesis(Chemistry), Porphyrins.
