- Abstract
Mediterranean blue corroles having 5,15 ‐ diester groups have been synthesized in Marseille by condensation of meso ‐ carboethoxydipyrromethane with various aldehydes (R ‐ CHO). The meso ‐ ester groups stabilize corroles towards oxidation and lead to red ‐ shifted absorption and emission bands. Single ‐ crystal X ‐ ray structures could be solved for five corroles, including the one shown, which has the longest alkyl chain crystallized for a metal ‐ free corrole. The depicted 10 ‐ hexadecylcorrole “swims” in the Calanque de Port ‐ Miou situated between Cassis and Marseille. This structure looks similar to a lobster, which is a favorite addition to the traditional fisherman's dish, “bouillabaisse”. More details of this chemistry can be found in the Full Paper by G. Canard, T. S. Balaban and co ‐ workers on page 7760 ff.
