Summary

By means of copper catalyzed intramolecular coupling of the easily accessible 1,2-bis-(1-iodo-dipyrrin-9-yl)-ethanes and subsequent demetallation of the intermediate copper complexes corrphycenes could be prepared in nearly 40% overall yields.

Zusammenfassung

Durch Kupfer katalysierte intramolekulare Kupplung der leicht zugänglichen 1,2-bis-(1-Iod-dipyrrin-9-yl)-ethane und anschließende Demetallierung der gebildeten Kupferkomplexe ergibt Corrphycene in Gesamtausbeuten von fast 40%.
