Conformationally Flexible Bis(9-fluorenylidene)porphyrin Diradicaloids.

Angewandte Chemie 2017 October 17
A stable 5,10-bis(9-fluorenylidene)porphyrin (Por-Fl) diradicaloid was synthesized. It shows a quinoidal, saddle-shaped geometry in the single crystal but can be thermally populated to a triplet diradical both in solution and in the solid state. Coordination with the Ni(2+) ion (Por-Fl-Ni) does not significantly change the contorted conformation but reduces the singlet-triplet gap. Heat-induced geometric change can explain the observed paramagnetic properties as well as unusual hysteresis in SQUID measurements. On the other hand, protonation (Por-Fl-2H(+) ) dramatically changes the conformation while maintains the closed-shell electronic structure. Our studies demonstrate how heat, coordination, and protonation affect the geometry, diradical character, and physical properties of conformationally flexible open-shell singlet diradicaloids.
