- Abstract
An expanded triphyrin containing a bipyrrole moiety and annulene links, namely tetraphenyl‐[22]triphyrin(6.5.0), 2, has been synthesized. The synthesis proceeded by a postsynthetic transformation of tetraphenyl‐[22]triphyrin(6.6.0), 1, in a metal‐free unexpected and unprecedented ring contraction during column chromatography on alumina. The observed transformation, located at the hydrocarbon chain linking the pyrrole units, formally corresponds to a subtraction of one carbon atom from an annulene circuit. In contrast to the flexible substrate 1, the product 2 is conformationally rigid, and capable of chloride anion binding in its protonated form.
