Neo-fused hexaphyrin: A molecular puzzle containing an N-linked pentaphyrin

The first neo-confused hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.0) was synthesized by oxidative ring closure of a hexapyrrane bearing two terminal ``confused'' pyrroles. The new compound displays a folded conformation with a short interpyrrolic C center dot center dot center dot N distance of 3.102 angstrom,...
