Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The naturally-occurring oxygen-evolving system in photosynthesis II (Mn cluster) oxidizes two water molecules into an oxygen molecule. In this work, we aimed at a supramolecular coordination system for the generation of Mn clusters. Using a template molecule having six pyridine moieties, we successfully synthesized a macrocyclic porphyrin hexamer by a cross-coupling reaction (53%). Likewise, a macrocyclic porphyrin tetramer was also prepared in 14% by the template synthesis. These porphyrins were characterized by a series of photo-physical measurements.
