Although complex 12 bears two meso-OCH groups at the long sides and is quinonoidal and nonaromatic in nature, complex 13 bears 3,5-ditert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl and OCH groups and exhibits a moderate diatropic ring current despite its cross-conjugated electronic circuit. The diatropic ring current increases upon increasing the solvent polarity, most likely due to an increased contribution of an aromatic zwitterionic resonance hybrid.

Abstract: A cross-conjugated hexaphyrin that carries two meso-oxacyclohexadienylidenyl (OCH) groups 9 was synthesized from the condensation of 5,10-bis(pentafluorophenyl)tripyrrane with 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. The reduction of 9 with NaBH4 afforded the Mçbius aromatic [28]hexaphyrin 10. Bis-rhodium complex 11, prepared from the reaction of 10 with [{RhCl(CO)2}2], displays strong Hckel antiaromatic character because of the 28 p electrons that occupy the conjugated circuit on the enforced planar structure. The oxidation of 11 with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4benzoquinone (DDQ) yielded complexes 12 and 13 depend-

Introduction Meso-alkenylidenyl-substituted porphyrins have attracted considerable attention in view of their unique electronic and structural properties that arise from their quinonoidal cross-conjugated networks.[1] Representative examples include oxacyclohexadienylidene(OCH)-substituted porphyrins, dicyanomethylidenyl-substituted porphyrins,[1a–c] dithiomethylidenyl substituted porphyrins,[1d,e] and core-modified diethoxycarbonylmethylidenyl-substituted porphyrins.[2a,c] Tetrakis-OCH-substituted porphyrin 1 demonstrates solvatochromism,[3a] anion binding,[3a–c] O2 reduction capability,[3d,e] and reversible redox interconversions.[3b,f] Further recent reports on the application of 1 and related porphyrins include sensors for trace water[4a] or acid–base equilibria[4b] and hosts for chiral guest molecules.[4c] These latest reports highlight the great promise that such porphyrinoids show for acting as nanoarchitectonic sensors with a diverse range of physical-detection modes.[5] We also reported a tris(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-substituted subporphyrin and its oxidized subporphyrin 2 as the first examples of meso-OCH-substituted subporphyrins (Scheme 1),[6] which showed interesting deprotonation behavScheme 1. 3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl-substituted quinonoidal porphyrin 1 and subporphyrin 2.

In contrast, meso-alkenylidene-substituted expanded porphyrins have been scarcely studied, except for core-modified analogues.[2b–e] In recent years, expanded porphyrins have emerged as a new class of porphyrinoid that possess larger conjugated

Full Paper networks.[7] Although expanded porphyrins allow the realization of various p-conjugated electronic systems, such as Hckel aromatic and antiaromatic, Mçbius aromatic and antiaromatic, and stable-radical molecules,[8] the potential of expanded porphyrins has not been fully exploited and the search for expanded porphyrins with novel electronic states continues. Different from porphyrins, expanded porphyrins are structurally and electronically flexible. As a prime example, [26]hexaphyrin Scheme 2. Synthesis of hexaphyrins 9 and 10. MSA = methanesulfonic acid. 3, a typical Hckel aromatic molecule with a rectangular shape, is reduced upon treatment with NaBH4 to afford the twisted Mçbius aromatic [28]hexaphyrin 4 accompanied by large structural changes.[8c] In contrast, the corresponding rhodium complexes 5 and 6 are structurally rigid and display Hckel aromatic and antiaromatic characteristics, respectively, thus simply reflecting the numbers of p electrons that occupy their planar conformations (Scheme 1).[9] Herein, we report the synthesis of OCH-substituted hexaphyrins and demonstrate how the incorporation of meso-alkenylidene motifs into the hexaphyrin framework alters and influences the electronic properties. Cross-conjugated quinonoidal hexaphyrin 9 that bears two OCH groups has been shown to be reduced to the Mçbius aromatic [28]hexaphyrin 10 with two 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl groups. In addition, bis-rhodium metalation was accomplished for this quinonoidal hexaphyrin system, thus allowing the formation of three planar bis-rhodium complexes 11– 13, which bear zero, two, and one OCH groups, respectively. Bis-rhodium complex 13 exhibits a moderate diatropic ring current despite its cross-conjugated electronic circuit. Figure 1. X-ray crystal structure of 9. Top: perspective view. Bottom: side view.

Results and Discussion With the goal of synthesizing bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-substituted [26]hexaphyrin in mind, condensation of tripyrromethane 7 with 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (8) was attempted in the presence of a catalytic amount of methanesulfonic acid at 0 8C followed by oxidation with 2,3dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) in situ. The crude material was subjected to chromatography on silica gel to yield the quinonoidal hexaphyrin 9 in 17 % yield (Scheme 2). High-resolution electrospray-ionization time-of-flight (HR-ESITOF) mass-spectrometric measurement showed the parent-ion peak of 9 at m/z 1535.4026 (m/z calcd for [M + H] + : 1535.4062). The 1H NMR spectrum of 9 displays three doublet signals due to the outer b-protons in a range of d = 6.46–7.02 ppm and a singlet signal at d = 14.1 ppm due to the inner-NH proton, thus suggesting a nonaromatic nature. The electronic absorption spectrum of 9 in CH2Cl2 shows a band at l = 359 nm, but neither a Soret-like nor Q-like band is observed (Figure 4). The &

structure of 9 has been revealed by X-ray diffraction studies to be a dumbbell shape stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds (Figure 1). The average C=O bond length of the 3,5-ditert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl group is 1.234 , which is in line with a quinonoidal-type structure. Reduction of 9 with NaBH4 proceeded quantitatively to afford [28]hexaphyrin 10 (Scheme 2). The 1H and 19F NMR spectra of 10 are too broad for structural assignment at room temperature but become relatively sharp at low temperature so that signals owing to the pyrrolic b-protons and the inner bprotons are displayed in the approximate ranges of d = 6.0–9.0 and d = 1.0–0.0 ppm, respectively, thus implying an aromatic character. The 19F NMR spectrum of 10 indicates the presence of several conformers, thus suggesting the existence of a dynamic equilibrium (see the Supporting Information). The ab2

Full Paper sorption spectrum of 10 is very typical of aromatic porphyrinoids[8] and exhibits a Soret-like band at l = 617 nm and Q-like bands at l = 783 and 887 nm (Figure 4). On the basis of this data, [28]hexaphyrin 10 has been assigned as a twisted Mçbius aromatic molecule, although we could not obtain a single crystal. Rhodium metalation of 10 Figure 2. Bis-rhodium complexes 11–13. was examined to rigidify the hexaphyrin framework. By stirring 10 in CH2Cl2 in the presence of [{RhCl(CO)2}2] (5 equiv) and NaOAc (10 equiv), the bis-rhodium [28]hexaphyrin complex 11 was yielded in 73 % (Figure 2). X-ray diffraction studies revealed that 11 adopts a bent-rectangular structure with a dihedral angle of 131.48, in which the {Rh(CO)2} groups are bound to the convex side and the 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl groups are tilted with respect to the hexaphyrin framework with dihedral angles of 54.7 and 56.18 (Figure 3). The 1H NMR spectrum of 11 displays four doublets due to the outer pyrrolic b-protons in the range of d = 3.23–4.55 ppm, a singlet due to the outer NH-protons at d = 2.92 ppm, and two doublets due to the inner b-protons at d = 18.65 and 18.68 ppm, thus indicating a strong paratropic ring current that arises from Hckel antiaromaticity. The chemical-shift difference, defined as the difference between the chemical shifts of the most shielded and deshielded protons, is Dd = 15.76 ppm and is slightly larger than that of 6 (i.e., Dd = 13.83 ppm). Oxidation of complex 11 with an excess amount of DDQ gave the quinonoidal rhodium hexaphyrin complex 12 quantitatively (Figure 2). X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the structure of 12 is bent with a dihedral angle of 103.28, in which the two OCH groups are located at the long sides and held in a nearly coplanar manner to the hexaphyrin frame with a dihedral angle of 3.058 and the C=O bond length is 1.254  (Figure 3; see the Supporting Information). In accord with the quinonoidal, cross-conjugated electronic network, the 1H NMR spectrum of 13 shows signals due to the pyrrolic b-protons in Figure 3.

Interestingly, 13 has both 3,5di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl and OCH groups on the long side of the hexaphyrin framework, which is a rare case (Scheme 3). The structure of 13 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies to be roughly planar but bent with a dihedral angle of 133.18. The 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl group is tilted with respect to the hexaphyrin framework with a dihedral angle of 63.488, but the OCH group is nearly coplanar with a dihedral angle of 3.168. The C=O and C O bond lengths are 1.216 and 1.372 , respectively. The Scheme 3. Possible resonance of 13.

Full Paper To investigate the photophysical properties, the excitedstate dynamics of the rhodium complexes 11–13 in toluene were examined by transient absorption measurement. In the case of 11 and 13, within an initial time delay of 2 ps, the excited-state absorption (ESA) signals shift to the higher energy region, which generally represent energy-relaxation processes from the higher excited state to the lowest excited state. In other words, the ultrafast lifetime components (~ 1 ps) could have originated from the vibrational relaxation process in the excited states. The slow excited-state lifetime components of 400 and 600 ps for 11 and 13, respectively, could be assigned to the triplet-state lifetime because the fluorescence of 11 and 13 were not observed. The difference in the lifetimes between 11 and 13 is consistent with their aromatic features, that is, the antiaromaticity and aromaticity of 11 and 13, respectively.[10] Interestingly, 13 reveals more fast decay profiles than the previous rhodium complex of [26]hexaphyrin 5, which has a well-defined 26 p electronic circuit (see Figure S26 in the Supporting Information).[9] Furthermore, the triplet-state lifetime of 13 increases in DMSO (1300 ps) (Figure 5). Because the molecules that have well-defined p-conjugation show a long excited-state lifetime, these results also support a contribution of an aromatic zwitterionic resonance hybrid that encompasses a 26 p electronic circuit.

cyclic conjugated network (cross-conjugation). Despite this situation, the 1H NMR spectrum of 13 in CDCl3 indicates a substantial diatropic ring current by displaying four doublets due to the inner b-protons in a high-field range of d = 4.36– 4.80 ppm, eight doublets due to the outer b-protons in a lowfield range of d = 6.89–7.38 ppm, thus leading to determination of Dd = 3.02 ppm. This data may imply a contribution of an aromatic zwitterionic resonance hybrid that encompasses a 26 p electronic circuit (Scheme 3). In line with this hypothesis, the Dd value becomes larger upon increasing the polarity of the surrounding medium, that is, d = 3.30, 3.99, and 4.68 ppm in benzene, acetone, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), respectively. The absorption spectra of 11–13 are superimposed in Figure 4. The absorption spectrum of 11 does not have Q-like

Conclusion A hexaphyrin carrying two meso-OCH groups 9 has been prepared as the first example of a cross-conjugated hexaphyrin. Although quinonoidal hexaphyrin 9 is nonaromatic, its reduction product 10 displays Mçbius aromatic character. Bis-rhodium hexaphyrin complexes 11–13 were also synthesized and structurally well characterized. Complexes 11 and 12 were assigned as a Hckel antiaromatic molecule and a nonaromatic molecule, respectively. Unexpectedly, complex 13 exhibits a moderate diatropic ring current despite its cross-conjugated electronic network. The diatropic ring current of 13 increases upon increasing the polarity of the surrounding medium, thus suggesting a contribution from an aromatic zwitterionic resonance hybrid. Efforts are now devoted to the exploration of novel cross-conjugated porphyrinoids that possess larger pelectronic systems, which will be reported in due course.

bands and that of 12 is more ill-defined, in line with their respective antiaromatic and nonaromatic natures. On the other hand, the absorption spectrum of 13 shows Soret-like bands at l = 519 and 628 nm and Q-like bands at l = 858 and 1033 nm with relatively strong intensities, thus probably reflecting partially forgiven HOMO–LUMO transitions that arise from an aromatic zwitterionic resonance contribution. Electrochemical studies were performed by using cyclic voltammetry (see the Supporting Information). The quinonoidal hexaphyrins 9 and 12 exhibited four and five reversible reduction waves, thus indicating multiple electron-accepting abilities. The electrochemical HOMO–LUMO gaps of 9 and 12 are 1.45 and 1.44 eV, respectively, thus reflecting their disrupted cyclic conjugation. Hexaphyrins 10 and 11 showed two reduction waves and four and three oxidation waves. The electrochemical HOMO–LUMO gaps of 10 and 11 are distinctly smaller (i.e., 1.10 and 0.86 eV, respectively), which are in line with the aromatic and antiaromatic natures. The nonsymmetric hexaphyrin bis-rhodium complex 13 displayed four reduction waves and three oxidation waves. More importantly, the HOMO–LUMO gap of 13 is relative small (0.99 eV), thus suggesting that the cyclic conjugative network is somewhat effective in 13. &

Rhodium complex of hexaphyrin 11 NaOAc (20 mg, 10 equiv) and [{RhCl(CO)2}2] (60 mg, 6 equiv) were added to a solution of hexaphyrin 10 (40 mg, 26 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) at room temperature in a nitrogen atmosphere, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the crude mixture was separated by column chromatography on silica gel with CH2Cl2/hexane (1:1) as the eluent. The first violet fraction was collected and evaporated to dryness.

A good circuit: A cross-conjugated hexaphyrin that carries two meso-oxacyclohexadienyl (OCH) groups was prepared and reduced to a Mçbius aromatic [28]hexaphyrin. Bis-rhodium complexes of this system can take three different electronic states, one of which bears both a phenol and an OCH group, thus displaying a moderate diatropic ring current and probably reflecting a significant contribution of an aromatic zwitterionic resonance hybrid (see figure).
