Synthesis of 5,10-bis(Trifluoromethyl) Substituted β-Octamethylporphyrins and Central-Metal-Dependent Solvolysis of Their meso-Trifluoromethyl Groups

5,10-Bistrifluoromethyl substituted β-octamethylporphyrins were synthesized via a scrambling side reaction of a dipyrromethane precursor in the presence of a large excess of trifluoroacetic acid. Compared with the trans-analogs, the cis-analogs of meso-trifluoromethyl β-octaalkylporphyrin showed mor...
