Our recent studies on the synthesis, structures, and aromaticity of phosphole-containing porphyrins and their metal complexes are summarized. Core-modified P,X,N2-porphyrins (X = S, N) are accessible from a σ4-phosphatripyrrane and the corresponding 2,5-difunctionalized heteroles in a few steps. X-ray structural analysis of the σ3-P,N3 porphyrin revealed that it possesses a slightly distorted 18π plane. The phosphorus atom incorporated at the core plays an important role in producing unprecedented reactivity and coordinating ability for the porphyrin ring. The P,N3 free base reacts with [RhCl(CO)2]2 in dichloromethane, ultimately yielding an 18π P,N3–rhodium(III) complex, whereas the P,S,N2 free base undergoes redox-coupled complexation with zero valent group 10 metals to afford the corresponding P,S,N2-isophlorin–metal(II) complexes. The aromaticity of the free-base porphyrins and the metal complexes was uncovered based on both experimental and theoretical results. It is of particular interest that the P,S,N2-isophlorin–metal complexes exhibit only a weak antiaromaticity in terms of the magnetic criterion.

Bifunctional catalyst systems for the direct addition of ­ketones to unactivated alkenes/alkynes were designed and modeled by density functional theory (DFT). The designed catalysts possess bidentate ligands suitable for binding of pi-acidic group 10 metals capable of activating alkenes/alkynes, and a tethered organocatalyst amine to ­activate the ketone via formation of a nucleophilic enamine intermediate. The structures of the designed catalysts before and after C–C bond formation were optimized using DFT, and reaction steps involving group 10 metals were predicted to be significantly exergonic. A novel oxazoline precatalyst with a tethered amine separated by a meta-substituted benzene spacer was synthesized via a 10-step sequence that ­includes a key regioselective epoxide ring-opening step. It was combined with group 10 metal salts, including cationic Pd(II) and Pt(II), and screened for the direct addition of ketones to several alkenes and an ­internal alkyne. 1H NMR studies suggest that catalyst-catalyst inter­actions with this system via amine–metal coordination may preclude the desired addition reactions. The catalyst design approach disclosed here, and the promising calculations obtained with square planar group 10 metals, light a path for the discovery of novel bifunctional catalysts for C–C bond formation.
