Aggregation behavior of 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (F15TPC), 5,10,15,20-tetra(pentafluoroph-enyl)porphyrin (F20TPP), and their copper complexes in DCM solution were investigated by using UV-Vis spectro-sco...Aggregation behavior of 5,10,15-tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (F15TPC), 5,10,15,20-tetra(pentafluoroph-enyl)porphyrin (F20TPP), and their copper complexes in DCM solution were investigated by using UV-Vis spectro-scopic method. F20TPP and F20TPPCu exhibited strong π-π stacking interactions in DCM, and the intermolecular dimerization constants turned out to be 1.82 × 103 and 17.2 × 103 L·mol-1 respectively. However, extinction coefficients of F15TPC and F15TPCCu at soret band remained unchanged with increasing in their concentrations from 1.0 to 40.0 μmol·L-1, indicating they remained monomeric in DCM solution. Based on DFT calculation and the π-π stacking geometries observed in crystal structures of metal octaethylcorrole complexes, destroy of π-π interactions in F15TPC and F15TPCCu may be understood by the electrostatic potential surfaces (EPS) features of the molecules and steric repulsions caused by the introducing of three phenyl at the meso- positions of corrole macrocycle.展开更多

It was found that the demetalation yields depend on the substituents of corrole macrocycle significantly. Electron- rich manganese corrole undergoes reductive demetalation more easily than electron-deficient ones. The isolated reductive demetalation yield of manganese 5,10,15-tris（phenyl）corrole in present system is moderate （46%）. As for electron-deficient Mn（Ⅲ） 5,10,15-tris（pentafluorophenyl）corrole, the acid-induced demetalation in HOAc-HESO4 （V/V = 3：1） is preferable with an isolated yield of 67%.展开更多

The solvent dependence of the electronic absorption and magnetic circular dichroism（MCD） spectra and a series of TD-DFT calculations have been used to analyze trends in the electronic structures. Significant differences are observed in the optical spectra when solvents of differing polarity are used,which can be assigned to the effect of NH-tautomerism.展开更多
