Durene-capped porphyrin complexes of iron(II) and their interaction with imidazoles, isonitriles, CO, and O₂

Based on well developed procedures, durene-4/4 (la) and durene-7/7 (3a) capped porphyrins containing a totally hydrophobic cavity have been prepared: cyclization of the chain-linked dipyrromethane dimer (4) allows for porphyrin formation despite distortion of the porphyrin skeleton from planarity ca...
