Rhenium(V)-oxo corrolazines: isolating redox-active ligand reactivity.

ABSTRACT: The synthesis of the first example of a third-row metallocorrolazine characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction is reported. This Re(V)(O) porphyrinoid complex shows an exclusively ligand-based reactivity with strong acids and oxidizing agents. The one-electron oxidized π-radical-cation complex is capable of H-atom abstraction.
