Interactions of two porphyrin rings: Metal-induced structural change of 5,5′-ethylenebis(porphyrin)

5,5′-Ethylenebis(octaethylporphyrin) 1 and its metallocomplexes with various combination of metals (Zn, Cu, and Ni) 2-10 were prepared. On the basis of 1H and 13C NMR as well as MCD spectra, it was concluded that interactions between

Syn-anti conformational switching: Synthesis and X-ray structures of tweezer and anti form in a zinc porphyrin dimer induced by axial ligands

Stepwise addition of 1,2-diaminobenzene to a Zn-1,2-bis(meso- octaethylporphyrinyl)ethane produces both tweezer and anti-form of the complex depending on the concentration of the axial ligand which exhibit two major equilibrium steps (with two step-wise binding constants): first, guest ligation leading to the formation of 1:1 host-guest tweezer structure (K1) and, second, guest molecule ligation (K2) forming 1:2 host-guest anti species and the corresponding binding constants are 1.82 × 103 M-1 and 1.34 × 102 M-1, respectively. However, when guest like 1,4-diaminobenzene and 4-CN-pyridine are used, the ligand geometry prevents its entry into interporphyrin cavity to form a tweezer structure, thus producing only the 1:2 anti complex. Single crystal X-ray structures of both tweezer and anti form produced in a single Zn-bisporphyrin are reported here for the first time. The nonbonding Zn··· Zn distance within a molecule is 5.55 and 10.01 in tweezer and anti form, respectively. Although the average Zn-N (por) distances are comparable for both the forms, the Zn-N (1,2-diaminobenzene/4-CN-pyridine) distances and the displacement of Zn from the mean porphyrin planes are larger in tweezer compared to anti conformation.
