Popis: The synthesis, optical spectroscopy, photophysical properties, electrochemistry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of a series of [5,10,15,20-tetrakis(perfluoroalkyl)porphinato]zinc(II) complexes and their free base analogs are reported. The title compounds were prepared by a condensation methodology that utilizes perfluoro-1-(2‘-pyrrolyl)-1-alkanol precursors and employs continuous water removal throughout the course of the reaction to yield the meso perfluorocarbon-substituted porphyrins. The nature of the porphyrin-pendant meso-perfluoroalkyl group exerts considerable influence over the macrocycle's solubility properties. The structure of the monopyridyl adduct of [5,10,15,20-tetrakis(heptafluoropropyl)porphinato]zinc(II) features an S4-distorted porphyrin core; X-ray data are as follows: P1 with a = 15.1330(5) A, b = 19.2780(6) A, c = 14.6030(4) A, α = 110.220(2)°, β = 103.920(2)°, γ = 85.666(2)°, V= 3880.1(2) A3, dcalc = 1.887 g cm-3, and Z = 4. Electrochemical studies carried out on these porph...
