Expanded Boraporphyrinoids: Boron Macrocycles with Redox Switchable Magnetic (Anti)aromaticity and Strong Near-Infrared Absorption
University of Würzburg · Czech Academy of Sciences, Institute of Inorganic Chemistry
Abstract
Synthetic porphyrinoids are an intensely researched class of organic chromophores that can exhibit exceptional optoelectronic properties such as efficient light-harvesting capabilities due to panchromatic absorption and high extinction coefficients as well as emission in the long-wavelength electromagnetic spectral region. To harness these features for specific applications, it is pivotal to effectively tune their electronic properties, which can be achieved, for example, by incorporating heteroatoms into their π-system. Although the introduction of three-coordinate boron is particularly interesting due to the effect of its vacant p-orbital, boraporphyrinoids have hardly been explored so far. Herein, we report…
