Abstract

An extensive series of conjugated (porphinato) zinc (II)-based chromophores featuring nitrothiophenyl and nitrooligothiophenyl electron-accepting moieties has been synthesized using metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions involving [5-bromo-15- triisopropylsilylethynyl-10, 20-diarylporphinato] zinc (II) and an unusual electron-rich Suzuki- porphyrin synthon,[5-(4-dimethylaminophenylethynyl)-15-(4', 4', 5', 5'-tetramethyl [1', 3', 2'] ...
