Abstract
meso-Bromosubporphyrin undergoes nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions with arylamines, diarylamines, phenols, ethanol, thiophenols, and n-butanethiol in the presence of suitable bases to provide the corresponding substitution products. The SNAr reactions also proceed well with pyrrole, indole, and carbazole to provide substitution products in moderate to good yields. Finally, the SNAr reaction with 2-bromothiophenol and subsequent intramolecular peripheral arylation reaction affords a thiopyrane-fused subporphyrin.
