bled pyridine-tagged Zn(salen) complexes such as 6 are conve-
niently transmetalated in situ, followed by a metalation of a free
base porphyrin by the released Zn(OAc)2. As a result, the porphyrin
takes a role as an acceptor, while the Ni(salen) complex that is
equipped with a pyridine substituent acts as a donor. Both the sys-
tems cleanly self-assemble into heterobimetallic salen-porphyrin
structures. Although this work serves to demonstrate the potential
of this sequence in supramolecular chemistry, we believe that such
procedures can be of great use in the design of one-pot chemical
processes useful in homogeneous catalysis and/or combined recog-
nition-catalysis operations. Our future efforts concentrate on this
theme and results will be reported in future communications.
