Abstract

The homologation of a pyrrole to a pyridine ring within the porphyrinogen skeleton was achieved with high selectivity, good yield, and controlled regiochemistry and was scaled up to multiple gram quantities. The homologation of meso-octaethylporphyrinogen to meso-octaethyltris(pyrrole)-monopyridine was carried out by reacting carbon monoxide with Zr-C and Zr-H functionalities supported by the meso-octaethylporphyrinogen ligand [Et(8)N(4)H(4)]. The starting materials [(eta(5)-eta(1)-eta(5)-eta(1)-Et(8)N(4))Zr(mu-NaH)](2) (2) and [(eta(5)-eta(1)-eta(5)-eta(1)-Et(8)N(4))Zr(mu-KH)](2) (3) have been obtained by a direct addition of alkali hydrides to [(eta(5)-eta(1)-eta(5)-eta(1)-Et(8)N(4))Zr(THF)] (1) or via hydrozirconation reactions in the cases of [{(eta(5)-eta(1)-eta(1)-eta(1)-Et(8)N(4))ZrCH2CH3}(2)(mu-K)(2)] (6) and [{(eta(5)-eta(1)-eta(1)-eta(1)-Et(8)N(4))ZrCH=CH2}(2)(mu-K)(2)] (7).
