Abstract

The selective synthesis of [26]hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1) has been achieved by the reaction of meso-substituted tripyrrane and N-sulfonyl aldimine. The protocol is simple and requires only a catalytic amount of copper(II) triflate under mild reaction conditions. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
