Ruthenium‐Catalyzed Oxidation of the Porphyrin β,β′‐Pyrrolic Ring: A General and Efficient Approach to Porpholactones

Abstract: We describe an efficient ruthenium‐catalyzed oxidation of the β,β′‐pyrrolic ring on the porphyrin periphery. Through the conversion of a β,β′‐double bond to a lactone moiety, the direct preparation of porpholactones from porphyrins is achieved, which previously suffered from needing toxic reagents, multiple synthetic steps and low yields. The generality of this method has been investigated with various porphyrins with different electronic and steric effects, even some metalloporphyrins, and so represents a gen… Show more

“…Their better solubility renders the fluorinated derivatives to be a great platform for many modification reactions, including their one-step conversion to the corresponding (metallo)porpholactones T F PL/T F PLM. We found the RuCl 3 /Oxone ® -mediated oxidation pathway, as described by Zhang and co-workers [ 41 ], to be the most efficient pathway to generate free base T F PL as well as T F PLMs (for M = Zn II or Pt II ) by oxidation of the corresponding porphyrin metal complexes T F PPM (for M = Zn II or Pt II ). The reaction was described to be more suitable for substrates bearing electron-withdrawing meso -substituents [ 41 ].…”

“…In this contribution, we like to delineate in detail the most efficient paths toward TPL/TPLZn/TPLPt and T F PL/T F PLZn/T F PLPt we are aware of, with the aim of providing the non-specialist access to these intriguing and versatile materials. The procedures spelled out (see Supporting Information ) were derived from published methods developed by us [ 4 ], or the research group of Zhang [ 41 ], and tested multiple times in our laboratories. The detailed procedures incorporate hitherto unpublished practical details.…”

“…Known Porphyrinoid ([meso-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porpholactonato]Platinum(II), T F PLPt; MW = 1195 g/mol) was prepared as described previously along the [mesotetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin dihydroxylation, oxidation, and platinum insertion pathway [23,27], but alternative pathways toward this molecule are also available [28,29] [30]. We adjusted the pH levels ranging from pH 13.5 down to pH 8.0 using aqueous HCl.…”
