Abstract
[GRAPHICS] A first synthesis of free-base fluorinated benzochlorins by acid catalyzed cyclization of 20-(2-trisiloxy-trifluoromethylvinyl)octaethylporphyrin is a chieved, Under similar reaction conditions, the purpurin-18-N-hexylimide an alogues produced the corresponding fluorinated and nonfluorinated ethyliden e-substituted isobacteriochlorins and fluorinated chlorin, respectively. Th e structure of the porphyrin based fluorinated benzochlorin was also confir med by X-ray analysis.
