Abstract
Since the development of the first method for porphyrin synthesis by Rothemund in 1935, porphyrin derivatives have been widely investigated and have played an essential role in chemical sciences. Most synthetic routes of porphyrins involve oxidative aromatization. Herein, we present a synthetic method to produce ABCD-porphyrins, including chiral ones, through a one-pot reaction involving "coordination, cyclization, and dehydrative aromatization" using a mono-dipyrrinatoPt(II)Cl(COE) (COE=cyclooctene) complex as a platinum template.
