(1.0.0.1.1.1.0.0.1.1), were synthesized in 8-10% yields by condensing m-phenylene based pentapyrrane with pentafluorobenzaldehyde under mild reaction conditions. The crystal structure obtained for one of the decaphyrin macrocycle revealed that the macrocycle adopts figure-of-eight conformation and showed nonaromatic features. The decaphyrin macrocycles were further characterized by various spectral, electrochemical techniques and computational studies.
The
dibenzidecaphyrin macrocycle showed half the number of proton NMR resonances, indicating the high symmetry of the macrocycle. The decaphyrins showed a broad absorption in 600-900 nm region along with a well-defined band at 448 nm and the macrocycles were stable under redox conditions. The decaphyrins were treated with BF3.OEt2/triethylamine in CH2Cl2 at reflux temperature, followed by column chromatography, to afford bis-BF2 complexes of decaphyrin in 34-40% yields. The spectral and DFT studies supported a figure-of-eight conformation for the bis-BF2 complexes and electrochemical studies indicated that the bis-BF2 complexes were electron deficient compared to the free base decaphyrin macrocycles.

INTRODUCTION Expanded porphyrins are defined as macrocycles that contain pyrrole, furan, thiophene or other five or six membered heterocyclic or carbocyclic subunits interconnected either directly or through one or more meso carbons maintaining minimum 17 atoms in the ring pathways.1,2 Over the years, several research groups explored the chemistry of expanded porphyrins in terms of their different synthetic strategies structure-property relationships and applications in various technological fields3 Due to availability of more number of coordinating atoms and bigger cavity size, the core modified expanded porphyrins gained tremendous attention in metal coordination, anion binding, sensing and anion transport chemistry.1-3 The attention on expanded porphyrins has been continuously growing because of their ability to act as sensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT),4 as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),5 as radiation therapy enhancer,6 and also as nonlinear optical (NLO) material and for investigation of issues related to aromaticity.7 The expanded porphyrins are conformationally flexible and prefer to exist in different conformations depending upon their ring size.8 In general, the expanded porphyrins which are larger than heptaphyrins becomes more flexible and try to attend different conformations/shapes leading to more complexity in their stuctures.2a The control over conformation of expanded porphyrins is important since the structural arrangement define the electronic, optical and coordination properties of expanded porphyrins.. A perusal of literature reveals that, there are only few examples of large expanded porphyrins which have been structurally characterized. These includes Sessler’s turcasarin,9 Setsune’s helical [64]hexadecaphyrin,10 Chandrashekar’s aromatic core-modified [34]octaphyrin,11 Vogel’s figure eight [32]octaphyrin12 and Osuka’s the crescent shaped [44]decaphyrin as well as the intramolecular helical [56]dodecaphyrin13 to name just a few

of the important expanded macrocycles. Furthermore, expanded carbaporphyrinoids containing one or more internal carbon donor atoms along with other heteroatom donors such as nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur, selenium, tellurium etc. in the coordination core are very rare and little is known about their electronic, structural and coordination properties.14 Recently, we reported the synthesis of [28] m-benzihexaphyrins15 1a-d by (3+3) condensation of readily available precursors such as 1,3-dithienylbenzene diol with different 16-hetero tripyrranes under simple acid catalyzed macrocycle forming conditions (Figure 1). The [28] m-benzihexaphyrins are highly stable nonaromatic macrocycles and absorbs in the region of 500-950 nm but have a weak tendency to form coordination complexes (1a-d). We also prepared stable doubly N-fused nonaromatic expanded dibenziporphyrins (2a-d) by (5+3) condensation of 1,3-bis(2-thienyl)benzene diol with m-phenylene based pentapyrrane under mild acid catalyzed conditions.16 These doubly fused expanded dibenziporphyrins (2a-d) did not have appropriate coordination environment to form complexes. In continuation of our work on expanded benziporphyrinoids, in this paper, we report the

The macrocycles (3a-c) readily forms bis-BF2 complexes (4a-c) upon treatment with BF3.OEt2 in the presence of triethylamine in CHCl3 under reflux conditions. The spectral and electrochemical studies indicate that both dibenzidecaphyrins (3a-c) and their bis-BF2 complexes (4a-c) retain figure-of-eight conformations in solution as well.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The target dibenzidecaphyrins (3a-c) and their bis BF2 complexes (4a-c) were prepared by using reported procedure17 as shown in the Schemes 1 and 2, respectively. The desired m-phenylene based pentapyrranes (5a-c) were prepared from corresponding 1,3-dithienylbenzene diols (6a-c) by following our earlier reported procedure.16 The reaction was carried out by condensing one equivalent of appropriate pentapyrrane 5a with one equivalent of various aldehydes such as p-tolualdehyde, p-nitrobenzaldehyde, anisaldehyde, p-bromobenzaldehyde, pentafluorobenzaldehyde in CH2Cl2 in the presence of catalytic amount of TFA for 1 h under inert

atmosphere followed by oxidation with DDQ in open air. The progress of the reaction was followed by TLC analysis and absorption spectroscopy. Interestingly, we did not notice the formation of the desired decaphyrin macrocycle in condensation of pentapyrranes with different aldehydes except pentafluorobenzaldehyde which showed a very clear green colored major spot on TLC and two well defined absorption bands in the region of 300-900 nm. The crude compound was subjected to basic alumina column chromatography and a dark green compound was collected. The HR-MS analysis showed a peak at 1678.5054 corresponding to [M+H] + molecular ion peak of the desired dibenzidecaphyrin macrocycle 3a. The formation of compound 3a was further confirmed by X-ray crystallography (vide infra). The reaction was repeated several times by varying different acids and their concentration. The best yield of 10% for macrocycle 3a was obtained when we used 0.5 equivalent of TFA for condensation and 2 equivalents of DDQ for the oxidation. It is worth mentioning that we did not notice formation of any macrocycle when the condensation

The bis BF2 complexes of decaphyrins 4a-c were prepared by treating appropriate decaphyrin macrocycle 3a-c with 60 equiv. of BF3.OEt2 in CHCl3 in the presence of triethylamine base at reflux for 6 h. As the reaction progressed, the color of the reaction mixture was turned to more dark green and absorption spectroscopy showed different features from free base macrocycle indicating the formation of the desired bis BF2 complexes 4a-c (Scheme 2).

X-ray crystallography of dibenzidecaphyrin 3a: The identity of the dibenzidecaphyrin 3a was unambiguously confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The diffraction quality single crystals of 3a were grown by slow evaporation of n-hexane into chloroform solution of 3a at room temperature over a period of 7 days and the crystal structure obtained for 3a is presented in Figure 2. The important crystallographic data are enlisted in Tables S1 and S2. The decaphyrin macrocycle 3a crystallizes in C2/c space group of monoclinic system, containing six independent molecules in a unit cell. It is evident from the Xray structure (Figure 2) that the macrocycle 3a was highly ruffled and attains a figure-of-eight structure which was observed in other reported expanded porphyrins.17 The asymmetric unit of the molecule indicates the presence of overall half symmetry due to a two-fold rotational axis. The Xray structure reveals that the four thiophene rings in the molecule were connected to two phenylene rings at 1, 3-positions and the sulphur atoms of thiophene rings were pointing outwards and inwards alternately with respect to the macrocycle core. The C-C bond lengths within the mphenylene rings exhibit the characteristic benzene like features with C-C bond length varying from 1.360(8) to 1.395(8) Å. However, the C-C bonds between m-phenylene rings and thiophene rings have single bond character implying the lack of π-delocalization in the macrocycle leading to a non-aromatic system. The rest of the molecule displays typical conjugated bond features within the macrocycle as confirmed from the C-C, C-N and C-S bond lengths. Furthermore, intramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions N2-H2..N1 (H2..N1 2.22 Å) and N2-H2..S2 (H2..S2 2.34 Å) were observed. The torsional angles between meso- tert-butylbenzene rings adjacent to the porphyrinato thiophene group are (C4C5C6C15) 130° and (C42C31C32C33) 138° respectively, which are much higher than those of the pentafluorophenyl rings present on the dipyrromethene unit (C19C20C21C26 = 108°). Thus, the crystal structure reveals that the

All of the hydrogen atoms and meso aryls have been omitted for clarity. NMR Studies: The dibenzidecaphyrins 3(a-c) and their bis BF2 complexes 4(a-c) were characterized in detail by using 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy (see Supporting Information). The partial 1H NMR spectrum of 3a is presented in Figure 3. It is clear from the Figure 3 that compound 3a shows fewer proton NMR resonances than one would expect for such a large macrocycle indicating that the macrocycle is a highly symmetric molecule. Thus, in the 1H NMR spectrum of macrocycle 3a, the eight protons of four pyrrole rings appeared as two sets of resonances at 6.91 (type h) and 7.86 (type i) ppm; the eight protons of four thiophene rings appeared as two sets of resonances at 6.01 (type d) and 6.44 (type e) ppm and the six protons of two benzene rings appeared as two sets

All these resonances were identified and assigned based on position, integration, coupling constant and proton to proton cross correlations in 1H-1H COSY and NOESY spectra (Supporting information). The appearance of macrocyclic ring protons such as pyrrole, thiophene and benzene protons in 6-8 ppm region and the pyrrole inner NH protons at ~14 ppm supports the non-aromatic nature of the macrocycle and these features are in agreement with other reported nonaromatic/anti-aromatic macrocycles in the literature.19 The other two decaphyrin macrocycles 3b and 3c were also characterized and identified all resonances by 1D and 2D NMR spectra. The NMR spectrum of the BF2 complex 4a was much more resolved as evident in 1H-1H COSY spectrum shown in Figure 4. In macrocycle 3a, the type a and c protons of the benzene ring appeared as a multiplet in the region of 6.93-6.97 (type a and c) ppm, but these were well separated in the BF2 complex 4a and the protons appeared as two sets of peaks at 6.91 (type a) and 7.32 (type c) ppm. In the BF2 complex 4a, the inner -NH protons which appeared at 14.07 ppm in free base macrocycle 3a were completely absent due to complexation with BF2 units. The pyrrole, thiophene and benzene protons in BF2 complex 4a experienced slight upfield or downfield shifts compared to the corresponding protons in free base macrocycle 3a indicating the alteration of the electronic properties of the decaphyrin macrocycle due to complexation with the BF2 units (Figure S33). The BF2 complex 4a was further characterized by

B NMR, the
macrocycle 4a showed a typical triplet due to coupling with two fluorides at 1.82 ppm whereas in 19

The significant downfield shifts of 11B and

F NMR resonances in macrocycle 4a compared to
standard BF2 complex of meso-phenyl dipyrrin (BODIPY) was attributed to a macrocyclic ring current effect.20 The bis BF2 complexes 4b and 4c also showed similar NMR features. Thus, the

NMR spectral features were in agreement with the molecular structures of macrocycles 3 (a-c) and 4 (a-c).
Absorption and electrochemical studies: The absorption and electrochemical properties of macrocycles 3a-c and their bis-BF2 complexes 4a-c were investigated and data are presented in Table S3. The comparison of absorption spectra and the cyclic voltamograms of 3a and 4a are presented in Figure 5a and Figure 5b respectively. Both macrocycles showed typical nonaromatic absorption features in 300-900 nm region. The macrocycle 3a showed a broad band in region of 600-900 nm and a relatively well-defined sharp band at 490 nm, whereas macrocycle 4a exhibited a slightly hypsochromically shifted broad band at 700 nm and ill-defined broad band in the region of 300-500 nm. Furthermore, BF2 complexation slightly altered absorption features of the decaphyrin macrocycle indicating that macrocycle 4a also adopts a figure-of-eight conformation like its free base decaphyrin precursor 3a. The compounds 3b/3c and 4b/4c also showed similar absorption features with slight shifts in their peak maxima (Table S3). We explored the sensing ability of macrocycle 3a towards different anions and cations. Our preliminary studies indicated that the free base decaphyrin 3a did not show any sensing ability for anions but showed specific sensing for Hg2+ ion over various other metal ions (Figure S38). Thus, we noticed significant changes in the absorption spectrum of macrocycle 3a only upon addition of Hg2+ ion and no major changes were observed with other metal ions such as K+, Na+, Li+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Cr3+. The color of solution was also changed from light green to dark green upon addition of Hg2+ ion to macrocycle 3a. We carried out systematic absorption spectral titration of macrocycle 3a upon increasing addition of Hg2+ ion as shown in Figure 5b. The sequential addition of Hg2+ ion to chloroform solution of macrocycle

3a resulted in the decrease of absorption band at 448 nm and appearance of new band at 479 nm and significant increase of broad absorption band at 731 nm along with a clear isosbestic point at 464 nm suggesting the presence of two species which we attributed to the free base macrocycle 3a and its Hg2+ complex 3a+Hg2+. Furthermore, the binding constant of 7.35 x 103 M-1 was evaluated for macrocycle 3a and Hg2+ ion interaction using Benesi-Hilderbrand equation. Job’s plot analysis supported 1:2 stoichiometry between macrocycle 3a and Hg2+ ion (Figure 5c). However, we could not establish 1:2 stoichiometry by HR-MS analysis due to our instrument limitations. The redox properties of 3a and 4a were investigated in dichloromethane by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Macrocycle 3a showed one quasireversible reduction at -0.90 V; one irreversible reduction at -1.38 V and three quasi-reversible oxidations at 0.66 V, 0.72 V and 1.04 V. Thus, the macrocycle 3a show relatively easier oxidations and harder reductions indicating that it is an electron rich macrocycle. The bis-BF2 complex 4a also exhibited similar redox features. Complex 4a showed one reversible reduction at -0.69 V; one irreversible reduction at -1.28 V and three quasi-reversible oxidations at 0.77 V, 0.86 V and 1.02 V as shown in Figure 5d. Furthermore, a comparison of the redox potential for 3a and 4a indicates that the reductions were observed at less negative potential whereas oxidations were noted at more positive potential in complex 4a compared free base decaphyrin macrocycle 3a. This indicates that the bis-BF2 complex 4a is easier to reduce but more difficult to oxidize compared to free base decaphyrin macrocycle 3a. The decaphyrin macrocycles 3b/3c and their BF2 complexes 4b/4c also exhibited similar redox features like 3a/4a (Table S3).

The comparison of the DFT (B3LYP/6-31g (d,p)) optimized structures of the compound 3a and its bis-BF2 complex 4a is presented in Figure 6 and for compounds 3b-c and their bis-BF2 complexes 4b-c were included in supporting information (Figures S41-S42). DFT studies indicated a very similar structure for compound 3a as that obtained from single X-ray crystal. Furthermore, the optimized geometries of the compounds 3b and 3c shows similar structural features of macrocyclic core as that of compound 3a suggesting no influence of change in meso substituents on structural properties of dibenzidecaphyrin core. Upon bis-BF2 complexation of 3a, we noted that the two dipyrrin moieties of dibenzidecaphyrin macrocycle became more planar but rest of the dibenzidecaphyrin macrocycle that includes four thiophene and two p-phenylene rings was deviated from the plane of the BF2 dipyrrin moieties resulted in more distorted geometry of compound 4a compared to compound 3a. Similar observations were noted for other bis BF2 complexes of dibenzidecaphyrins 4b and 4c with respect to their corresponding free base dibenzidecaphyrins 3b and 3c, respectively. The observed illdefined blue shifted absorption bands of bis-BF2 complexes 4a-c compared to their free bases 3ac can be attributed to the structural deformation in 4a-c (Figures 5, S35 and S36).

Figure 6. Comparison of DFT optimized geometries of compound 3a (a) and its bis-BF2 complex 4a (b); Top-perspective views and Bottom- side views (Note: Hydrogen atoms and meso substituents in side views were removed for clarity). Analysis of the frontier molecular orbitals of the compound 3a suggested that HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbitals) is mainly localized on four thiophene rings, two dipyrrin units and little density on pentafluorobenzene rings present at the meso positions but no orbital density on two p-phenylene units of macrocycle. Also, LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbitals) in 3a localized mainly on dipyrrin units and thiophene rings away from the p-phenylene units which supports poor π-orbital overlap in dibenzidecaphyrin 3a. However, HOMO of the compound 4a is localized on one of the dipyrrin units and thiophene rings leaving no orbital density on rest of the macrocycle. In LUMO of the 4a, the transfer of most of the charge density to other

part of the macrocycle was observed. The HOMO and LUMO of the compound 4a were found to be stabilized compared to the HOMO and LUMO of 3a suggesting 4a is difficult to oxidize but easier to reduce compared to 3a. The redox properties were also in agreement with these observations. The increase in band gap in 4a supports the blue shifted absorption bands of 4a compared to 3a. Similar observations were noted for the compounds 3b-c and 4b-c (Figures S43S44 ).

CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, we successfully prepared the first examples of dibenzidecaphyrins (1.0.0.1.1.1.0.0.1.1) from a readily available m-phenylene based pentapyrranes as the key precursors under mild reaction conditions. The dibenzidecaphyrin macrocycles were not formed when we used any other substituted aldehydes other than pentafluorobenzaldehyde. These macrocycles are the largest expanded benziporphyrinoids known in the literature so far. The crystal structure obtained for one of the decaphyrin macrocycles revealed that the macrocycle adopts a figure-of-eight conformation. The decaphyrin macrocycles show few resonances in the proton and 13
C NMR spectra due to the presence of high symmetry. The free base decaphyrin macrocycles
exhibits typical non-aromatic absorption features and are stable under electrochemical redox conditions. The decaphyrin macrocycles readily forms bis-BF2 complexes upon treatment with BF3.OEt2 at reflux conditions. The NMR, absorption, electrochemical and DFT studies support the retention of fight-of-eight conformation for bis-BF2 complexes of the dibenzidecaphyrin macrocycle.
MATERIALS AND METHODS General Experimental: The chemicals such as pentafluorobenzaldehyde, and 2,3-dichloro-5,6dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) were procured from Sigma-Aldrich and used as obtained. All other chemicals used for the synthesis/studies were obtained from local suppliers and were reagent/spectroscopic grade unless otherwise specified. Column chromatography purifications were done using basic alumina (Al2O3). The characterization of the compounds using various spectral techniques such as NMR, absorption, cyclic voltammetry were performed as described previously.16

X-ray crystal structure analysis: The X-ray crystal analysis and crystal refinements were performed as described previously.16 The CCDC No. 1824344 contains the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper. These data can be obtained free of charge from The Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre via www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/data_request/cif. Computational details: The density functional theory (DFT) calculations for the compounds 3ac and 4a-c were carried out as described previously.21 The stability of the optimized geometries of the all compounds 3a-c and 4a-c was established with vibrational analyses, and found that the sum of imaginary frequencies were zero for all the molecules.
