Abstract
Triphenylene twins are intriguing structures, and those bridged through their 3,6-positions by dipyrromethene units give a new class of macrocycles that can be viewed as rigid, expanded porphyrin derivatives in which coplanarity is enforced in a formally antiaromatic π system. Somewhat surprisingly, however, macrocyclization leads to significant overall stabilization of the dipyrromethene chromophores.Entities:
