Abstract
- A coiled structure of meso-pentafluorophenyl-substituted [62]tetradecaphyrin 1 was revealed by X-ray structural analysis. Synthetic protocols were devised to form mono- and bis-Zn(II) complexes, 1 Zn and 1 Zn2 , selectively. The former displayed a trigonal-bipyramidal pentacoordinated Zn(II) ion as a rare case and a cyclic voltammogram exhibiting eleven reversible redox waves. The latter showed a Ci-symmetric structure with modest Hückel aromaticity owing to a 62 π-electronic circuit as the largest aromatic molecule to date.
