Mono-hydroxychlorins are uncommon macrocycles that have only been synthetically realized by modifying porphyrin rings using the harsh oxidizing agent OsO4. We show here that a more directed delivery of the mono-hydroxychlorin may be concomitantly obtained from the oxidation of porphyrinogen using the mild conditions of the high dilution Lindsey porphyrin forming reaction where water content is minimized by using dry CHCl3within the environment of a glovebox. We now report the direct synthesis of 17,18-dihydro-18-hydroxy-5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-fluoro,2,6-dimethylphenyl)-porphyrin (2H-TFChl-[Formula: see text]OH) together with the corresponding freebase porphyrin TFP. The TFP has been metalated with FeBr2and MgBr2•OEt2resulting in metalloporphyrins Fe(III)TFP(Cl) and Mg(II)-TFP which have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. We find that the excited state properties of the mono-hydroxychlorin are similar to that of its parent TFP and Mg(II)TFP porphyrin congeners. Excited state deactivation by vibronic coupling to the high energy O-H oscillator is circumvented with the hydroxyl group remote to the 18[Formula: see text]-electron framework of the chlorin ring. These results reveal that strong H-bonding groups may be introduced on the periphery of the chlorin ring while maintaining the light-gathering properties that lie at the heart of photosynthesis of the chlorin ring.

null (Ed.)Three nitrogen-rich heterocyclic compounds containing the diamino-pyrimidine mono- N -oxide moiety were synthesized via mild oxidation reactions. Oxidation of the furazano-pyrimidine compound ( 1 ) with a mixture of trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) and hydrogen peroxide (50%) gave the nitrate salt ( 3 ). All of the compounds were characterized by NMR spectra, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. They show high thermal stability and good detonation performance as well as low sensitivity.more » « less

Particle collisions at the energy frontier can probe the nature of invisible dark matter via production in association with recoiling visible objects. We propose a new potential production mode, in which dark matter is produced by the decay of a heavy dark Higgs boson radiated from a heavyW′ boson. In such a model, motivated by left-right symmetric theories, dark matter would not be pair produced in association with other recoiling objects due to its lack of direct coupling to quarks or gluons. We study the hadronic decay mode viaW′ →tband estimate the LHC exclusion sensitivity at 95% confidence level to be 102− 105fb forW′ boson masses between 250 and 1750 GeV.more » « less
