Abstract
The successful synthesis of a
carbenaporphyrin ligand based on carbazole and triazolylidene (CTP) is
reported. Instead of a macrocyclic aromatic or antiaromatic character, the
aromaticity of each heterocyclic moiety is preserved, which results in optical
properties different from porphyrins, e.g. fluorescence. In Li+ and Sc3+ complexes
the ligand reveals striking geometric similarity to porphyrins, but is stronger
electron donating.
