Here, the self-condensation of a dihydrodipyrrin-dioxolane affords a 5-[2-(trimethylsiloxy)ethoxy]bacteriochlorin. Like a 5-methoxybacteriochlorin, the latter undergoes regioselective bromination at the 15-position, directed by the distal 5-alkoxy group. On the other hand, attempted bromination of a bacteriochlorin bearing a 5-(2-hydroxyethoxy) group resulted in intramolecular ether formation with the adjacent β-pyrroline position to give an annulated dioxepine ring (confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structural analysis). The hydroxyethoxy group at the 5-position can be derivatized by acylation. In addition, the installation of auxochromes (methoxycarbonyl, phenylethynyl) at the β-pyrrole rings causes a substantial bathochromic shift of the long-wavelength absorption band (812 nm) and companion fluorescence emission band (821 nm). Taken together, the modification of the 5-substituent complements existing methods for installing a single substituent on the bacteriochlorin macrocycle. }, number={7}, journal={JOURNAL OF PORPHYRINS AND PHTHALOCYANINES}, publisher={World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt}, author={Zhang, Nuonuo and Reddy, Kanumuri Ramesh and Jiang, Jianbing and Taniguchi, Masahiko and Sommer, Roger D. and Lindsey, Jonathan S.}, year={2015}, month={Jul}, pages={887–902} }
