Abstract
Gold(lll) was incorporated into porphyrins by disproportionation of th e gold(I) complex [Au(tht)(2)]BF4, (tht=tetrahydrothiophene) under rel atively mild reaction conditions (refluxing chloroform), This novel me thod allows, in particular, the preparation of the gold(lll) complex o f 7,13,17-tetraethyl-2,8,12,18-tetramethylporphyrin, which could not b e obtained by the usual method (KAuCl4 in refluxing acetic acid).
