Polymer-bound pyrrole compounds. III [1]. Synthesis and properties of polystyrene-bound porphyrins and metalloporphyrins

Abstract

Several porphyrins and metalloporphyrins have been reversibly and covalently attached to a functionalized insoluble polystyrene matrix, α-[(4-bromomethyl-3-nitrobenzamido)benzyl]-poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene). Insertion and removal of Zn(II) on the supported species has been successfully achieved. The products have been identified by alkaline detachment as well as spectroscopically.
