A 250 ml three-necked round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirring bar and a reflux condenser was charged with 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (2.46 g, 20.2 mmol), acetic anhydride (12 ml), and propionic acid (100 ml) and stirred for 15 min at 383 K. Pyrrole (1.36 g, 20.6 mmol) was added slowly, and the mixture was refluxed for 1.0 h. The resulting solution was then cooled to room temperature and kept overnight. The purple crystals were filtered, washed with hot water and ethanol to remove traced of propionic acid, and dried in a vacuum oven to give a 12% yield (547 mg, 0.606 mmol): TLC Rf 0.95 (dichloromethane); 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ −2.77 (s, 2 H, NH), 1.45 (t, J = 8.0 Hz, 12 H, CH3), 2.80 (q, J = 7.2 Hz, 8 H, CH2), 7.54 (d, J = 8.4 Hz, 8 H, ArH), 8.26 (d, J = 8.8 Hz, 8 H, ArH), 8.92 (s, 8 H, β-pyrrole-H); 13C-NMR (CDCl3, 75 Hz) δ 9.18, 27.97, 119.27, 119.86, 131.17, 135.27, 139.44, 150.76, 173.05; FT—IR (KBr) 3318 (br, NH), 3037 (w), 2979 (w), 1760 (s, C=O), 1594 (s, C=C), 1503 (m), 1198 (s), 1139 (s), 968 (s), 799 (s) cm−1; UV-vis (CH2Cl2) λmaxnm (ε, dm3mol−1cm−1): 418 (4.72 x 105), 446 (1.95 x 104), 514 (1.85 x 105), 548 (8.42 x 103), 590 (5.75 x 102), 646 (5.21 x 102); MS (FAB) m/z (relative intensity) 903 (M+).
The H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed in geometrically calculated positions and refined as riding, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) [1.5Ueq(C) for the methyl H atoms]. The imino H atom (H2) was located from a difference Fourier synthesis and refined by constraining the distance H2—N2 to 0.96 (2) Å. The C26—C27, C27—C28 bond lengths were restrained to 1.500 (3) Å in the refinement. SADI restraints were used for the bonds involving O1 and O3 atoms. During anisotropic refinement, the atomic displacement parameters of the end chain atoms were poorly defined and the temperature factors of atoms C18 and C28 were higher than those of atoms C17 and C27, because of the easily vibrating ends of the chains far away from the porphyrin ring. Attempts to refine a disordered model for these groups were unsuccessful, and SIMU/DELU restraints [instructions in the SHELX97 Manual (Sheldrick, 1997)] were used to get the final structure. As a result, the geometric parameters involving the end chain atoms are only a rough approximation to reality. The poor data to parameter ratio is due to the contribution of the floppy ester group in the low angle data only.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Porphyrins are receiving attention as photosensitizers in prospective photochemical electron-transfer systems for solar energy conversion (Morstyn & Kaye, 1990; Zanelli & Kaelin, 1990; Mehta et al., 1993). In addition, porphyrins are important prosthetic groups for a number of metalloproteins and enzymes, and their function depends on the metal ion and the nature of the axial ligand, as well as on the specific environment provided by the polypeptide chain (Dolphin, 1978; Conn et al., 1996). In the present study, the synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of the title compound is reported.
The porphyrin macrocycle is composed of four pyrrole rings alternately linked through methene carbon bridges. Each molecule possesses a crystallographic inversion center. The porphyrin core is planar which, facilitates the π-electron delocalization·The re-determination of the structure of porphine was reported by Chen & Tulinsky (1972), and it suggests that there are two structurally different pairs of pyrrole rings. Similarly, the title compound has two localized imino hydrogen atoms on opposite pyrrole rings and these rings differ structurally from the other two pyrrole rings. The imino H atoms cannot occupy adjacent pyrrole rings due to steric and electronic interactions which would increase potential energy of this configuration. Hence they should be present on diametrically opposed rings. Two dominant resonance structures of tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP), each with 18π electrons, have been reported by Silvers & Tulinsky (1967). The title porphyrin structure corresponds approximately to a structure expected of a hybrid of the two predominant classic resonance forms of the macrocyclic ring system. The pyrrolyl protons are equivalent in the NMR spectra, appearing as a singlet at lower field. The pyrrole N—H protons apparently undergo fast exchange in deuterochloroform solution, since their resonances are not visible in the NMR spectra.
The structure of the porphyrin core is very similar to other free base porphyrins (Silvers & Tulinsky, 1967, Chen & Tulinsky, 1972, Codding & Tulinsky, 1972, Little & Ibers, 1975). The chemically equivalent bonds around the 24 atom core have similar bond lengths. The 24 atom core is planar with an r.m.s. deviation from the the plane of 0.021 (3) Å, and the two independent pyrrole ring planes are tilted slightly at an angle of 2.1 (3)°. The imino H atoms are displaced on opposite sides with respect to the porphyrin macrocycle. The distance between the two imino H atoms is 2.33 (4) Å, which is slightly shorter than those values found in porphine (2.41 Å), and comparable with those in TPP (2.36 Å) and octaethylporphyrin (OEP) [2.36 (4) Å] (Codding & Tulinsky, 1972, Silvers & Tulinsky, 1967, Lauher & Ibers, 1973). The imino H atoms form bifurcated intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the adjacent unprotonted N atoms (Table 2). Owing to the steric effect of the bulky phenyl group, the four planes of the phenyl groups are almost perpendicular to the porphyrin macrocycle. Therefore, the angles between the planes of the first pyrrole ring containing N1 and its neighboring two phenyl rings containing C10 and C20 are 86.1 (2)° and 84.0 (1)°, respectively, while those between the planes of the second pyrrole ring containing N2 and its neighboring two phenyl rings containing C10 and C20i are 84.0 (2)° and 84.1 (2)°, respectively.
Each individual porphyrin molecule is linked to four molecules by four C8—H8···O2 weak hydrogen bonds, in two of them acting as donor and two as acceptor. This interaction generates a R44(54) graph-set ring (Etter et al., 1990) as shown in Fig. 2. These rings are joined in a sheet, extended along all the crystal, by C(12) chains.
