Abstract
Synthesis of rubyrins containing two or three heteroatoms (O, S, Se) in the core is accomplished using modified diols and tetrapyrromethanes. Substitu tion of heteroatoms leads to significant reductions in HOMO-LUMO gap and ea sier oxidations and reductions reflecting the changes in electronic structu re of the rubyrin skeleton.
