The title compound, (II), was prepared via reaction of compound (I) with n-butyllithium. A similar reaction of the free base porphyrin (III) yielded 5-n-butyl-10,15-diisobutylporphyrin, (IV).
Synthesis of (5-n-butyl-10,20-diisobutylporphyrinato)nickel(II), (II):
(5,15-Diisobutylporphyrinato)nickel(II), (I) (Wiehe et al., 2005), (1 eq.) was placed in a Schlenk flask and dissolved in dry THF under argon. The solution was cooled down to -78 °C. Then n-butyllithium (20 eq., 2.5 M solution in n-hexane) and N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylendiamine (3.3 eq.) were added dropwise. The mixture was allowed to warm up to room temperature and was stirred for 30 additional minutes. The reaction was quenched with 3 ml water and stirred for another 15 min. DDQ (5.5 eq.) was added. Stirring was continued for 15 min followed by filtration of the reaction mixture through 200 ml silica gel and washing with dichloromethane. The eluted porphyrin fractions were evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane and purified via column chromatography on silica gel with dichloromethane: n-hexane (1:3, v/v, h = 48 cm, ø = 3 cm). The product was obtained as purple crystals after recrystallization from dichloromethane/methanol 27.2 mg (0.05 mmol, 28%): Mp > 310 °C, Rf=0.7 (CH2Cl2: n-hexane, 1:3, v/v); 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 0.88 (d, 12H, 3J = 6.6 Hz, CH(CH3)2), 1.05 (t, 3H, 3J = 7.3 Hz, CH2CH3), 1.60 (m, 2H, CH2CH3), 2.30 (m, 4H, CH(CH3)2 + CH2CH2CH2), 4.56 (m, 6H, CH2CH2CH2 + CH2CH), 9.05 (d, 2H, 3J = 4.9 Hz, Hβ), 9.34 (d, 2H, 3J = 4.9 Hz, Hβ), 9.36 (s, 4H, Hβ), 9.49 p.p.m. (s, 1H, Hmeso); 13C NMR (63 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 14.0, 23.0, 23.5, 34.0, 34.5, 39.6, 42.3, 102.6, 115.8, 117.9, 129.6, 130.2, 130.5, 132.0, 140.7, 141.6, 142.2, 142.3 p.p.m.; UV/vis (CH2Cl2): λmax (lg ε) = 411 (5.55), 528 nm (4.29); MS (EI, 70 eV): m/z (%) = 534 (89) [M+], 491 (100) [M+—C3H7], 448 (18) [M+—C6H14], 267 (2) [M2+]; HRMS (ES+): [C32H36N4Ni]: calcd. 534.2293, found 534.2300.

Reaction of (5,15-diisobutylporphyrinato)nickel(II), (I), with n-butyllithium yielded the title compound, (II) (Fig. 1). The synthesis followed the general strategy outlined earlier (Senge, 2005). Similarly, the respective free base (IV) could be prepared via reaction of (III) with n-butyllithium. Crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray crystallography were grown by liquid diffusion of methanol into a solution of (II) in methylene chloride.
The compound crystallized with two crystallographically independent molecules in the unit cell. A top view of the molecular structure is shown in Fig. 2. All three alkyl side chains point towards the same face of the molecules. The compound is characterized by an overall ruffled conformation (Fig. 3), as indicated by mean displacements of the Cm atoms by about 0.6 Å (Table 1).
The molecules form a closely spaced lattice structure in which neighbouring porphyrin are oriented in a perpendicular fashion to each other. The edge of one molecule points with a β-H atoms towards the NiII centre of the next molecule. The H···Ni separations are small, with H22A···Ni1 = 2.593 Å, H12A···Ni2i = 2.667 Å, H32A···Ni1ii = 2.757 Å and H2A···Ni2iii = 2.635 Å [symmetry codes: (i) x, y+1, z; (ii) x-1, y-1, z; (iii) x+1, y, z]. Thus, the two faces of each macrocycle core are blocked by a neighbouring macrocycle in edge-on fashion (Fig. 4).
A conformational analys was performed using the NSD (normal structural decomposition method) developed by Shelnutt and co-workers (Jentzen et al., 1997). Both molecules exhibit the same conformation with only minor differences in conformational parameters and bond lengths and angles. The conformation is characterized by a significant degree of ruf distortion which is in line with expectations for a sterically unhindered Ni(II) meso-alkylporphyrin. The degree of displacement of the Cm atoms, which is characteristic for a ruffled conformation, is similar to that found for symmetric (5,10,15,20-tetraalkylporphyrinato)nickel(II) systems (Senge et al., 1999). Only negligible differences are found in displacements for substituted versus unsubstituted meso carbon atoms. One of the molecules exhibits a small degree of sad distortion and both show a contribution from bre in-plane distortion. Note, that compound (I), i.e. the meso disubstituted precursor compound, exhibits a planar macrocycle (Senge, 2012).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. The out carbon atom of the butyl chains shows some degree of thermal librational movement. |

Reaction of (5,15-diisobutylporphyrinato)nickel(II), (I), with n-butyllithium yielded the title compound, (II) (Fig. 1). The synthesis followed the general strategy outlined earlier (Senge, 2005). Similarly, the respective free base (IV) could be prepared via reaction of (III) with n-butyllithium. Crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray crystallography were grown by liquid diffusion of methanol into a solution of (II) in methylene chloride.
The compound crystallized with two crystallographically independent molecules in the unit cell. A top view of the molecular structure is shown in Fig. 2. All three alkyl side chains point towards the same face of the molecules. The compound is characterized by an overall ruffled conformation (Fig. 3), as indicated by mean displacements of the Cm atoms by about 0.6 Å (Table 1).
The molecules form a closely spaced lattice structure in which neighbouring porphyrin are oriented in a perpendicular fashion to each other. The edge of one molecule points with a β-H atoms towards the NiII centre of the next molecule. The H···Ni separations are small, with H22A···Ni1 = 2.593 Å, H12A···Ni2i = 2.667 Å, H32A···Ni1ii = 2.757 Å and H2A···Ni2iii = 2.635 Å [symmetry codes: (i) x, y+1, z; (ii) x-1, y-1, z; (iii) x+1, y, z]. Thus, the two faces of each macrocycle core are blocked by a neighbouring macrocycle in edge-on fashion (Fig. 4).
A conformational analys was performed using the NSD (normal structural decomposition method) developed by Shelnutt and co-workers (Jentzen et al., 1997). Both molecules exhibit the same conformation with only minor differences in conformational parameters and bond lengths and angles. The conformation is characterized by a significant degree of ruf distortion which is in line with expectations for a sterically unhindered Ni(II) meso-alkylporphyrin. The degree of displacement of the Cm atoms, which is characteristic for a ruffled conformation, is similar to that found for symmetric (5,10,15,20-tetraalkylporphyrinato)nickel(II) systems (Senge et al., 1999). Only negligible differences are found in displacements for substituted versus unsubstituted meso carbon atoms. One of the molecules exhibits a small degree of sad distortion and both show a contribution from bre in-plane distortion. Note, that compound (I), i.e. the meso disubstituted precursor compound, exhibits a planar macrocycle (Senge, 2012).
