Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have established the method of synthesis of porphyrins(2.1.2.1) from 1,2-di(pyrro-2-yl)benzene and benzaldehydes under condensation reaction. X-ray crystallography reveals that porphyrins(2.1.2.1) form highly saddle-shaped bent structures. In addition, porphyrins(2.1.2.1) can be converted to various metal complexes as well as pristine porphyrin. Bent structure of porphyrin(2.1.2.1) is a suitable platform for construction of cyclic structures. We have synthesized two type of porphyrin(2.1.2.1)-based cyclic trimers. In particular, cyclic porphyrins(2.1.2.1) trimer that is connected by benzene linkages can capture the two fullerenes in its cavity.
