Popis: The synthesis of organometallic complexes of modified 26π-conjugated hexaphyrins with absorption and emission capabilities in the third near-infrared region (NIR-III) is described. Symmetry alteration of the frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) of bis-PdII and bis-PtII complexes of hexaphyrin via N-confusion modification led to substantial metal dπ -pπ interactions. This MO mixing, in turn, resulted in a significantly narrower HOMO-LUMO energy gap. A remarkable long-wavelength shift of the lowest S0 →S1 absorption beyond 1700 nm was achieved with the bis-PtII complex, t-Pt2 -3. The emergence of photoacoustic (PA) signals maximized at 1700 nm makes t-Pt2 -3 potentially useful as a NIR-III PA contrast agent. The rigid bis-PdII complexes, t-Pd2 -3 and c-Pd2 -3, are rare examples of NIR emitters beyond 1500 nm. The current study provides new insight into the design of stable, expanded porphyrinic dyes possessing NIR-III-emissive and photoacoustic-response capabilities.
