Develops a new method for synthesizing aromatic corroles, suggesting improved optical properties.
A sulfolenocorrole (i.e., masked corrole-diene)-based “cycloaddition–metalation–oxidation” method has been developed, enabling the synthesis of aromatic ring-fused corroles with yields of up to 86%. Peripheral fusions not only enhance the long wavelength absorption but also modulate the electronic configurations of the ground states. Notably, aromatic ring-fused corroles with open-shell singlet ground states show SOMO(cor)–HOMO(cor) inversion.
