Homo- and Heterobismetal Complexes of 5-Hydroxy-10,15,25,30-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)-Substituted [26]Hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1)
Metalation of meso-free 5,10,20,25-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)substituted [26]hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1) (4) with Cu-II and Zn-II ions afforded homodinuclear complexes 6 and 7, respectively. A demetalation-remetalation protocol provided monozinc(II) complex 9 selectively, from which copper(II)-zinc(II) heterodinuclear complex 10 was prepared effectively.
