Abstract

Subporphyrins, which are legitimate ring-contracted porphyrins in terms of the regular arrangement of three pyrrolic units and methine carbons, have emerged as a novel functional pigment since their first synthesis in 2006.[1] Interest in these macrocycles initially lay on the influence of symmetry change from D4h of metalloporphyrins to C3v of boron (III) subporphyrins. In the meantime however, it has turned out that subporphyrins have ...
