Abstract

Cyclooctapyrroles, novel macrocycles containing two biladiene-a,c units, were synthesized in high yield from the condensation of 3,3’-dipyrromethanes with 5,5’-diformyl-2,2’-dipyrromethane under acidic conditions. These macrocycles form dinuclear complexes with zinc(H). (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
