    Abstract

    Abstract Image

    A series of highly substituted porphyrin thioethers was synthesized from 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethyl-5,10,15,20-tetranitroporphyrin (H2OETNP). The reactions proceeded via a SNAr mechanism with a broad range of aromatic thiols in the presence of a base. This is a rapid way to prepare a large variety of meso-substituted porphyrins from only one precursor. Single crystal X-ray analysis revealed that these new porphyrin thioethers are highly distorted, exhibiting conformational properties that are distinctive of both meso-sulfur substitution and steric overcrowding in general. Additionally, denitration of H2OETNP under basic conditions was investigated, yielding products of stepwise desubstitution. This allowed a comparative X-ray crystallographic study to delineate the successive structural effects of an increasing degree of nitro substitution in the complete series of nitro-substituted octaethylporphyrins.
