Sumario: | [Image: see text] The coordination chemistry of corrole has witnessed a great improvement in the past few years and its Periodic Table has been widened to be so large that it is compared with that of porphyrins. However, Ni and Zn ions, commonly used with porphyrins for both synthetic and theoretical purposes, are sparsely reported in the case of corroles. Here, we report synthetic protocols for preparing Ni and Zn triarylcorrole complexes. In the case of Zn, the preliminary oxidation of the free base corrole in DMSO to the neutral corrole radical is a necessary step to obtain the coordination of the metal ion, because the direct reaction led to the formation of an open-chain tetrapyrrole. The Ni complex could be directly obtained by heating the free base corrole and Ni(II) salt to 100 °C in a DMSO solution containing FeCl(3). The non-innocent nature of the corrole ligand for both complexes has been elucidated by EPR, and in the case of the Zn derivative the first spectroelectrochemical characterization is presented. |
