Bis-anthracene fused porphyrins: synthesis, crystal structure, and near-IR absorption.

Synthesis of fused bis-anthracene porphyrin monomers and dimers has been achieved by oxidative ring closure using FeCl(3) and Sc(OTf)(3)/DDQ, respectively. The fused compounds display red-shifted absorption spectra with maxima in the near-IR at 973 and 1495 nm, respectively, and small electrochemica...
