Vicinal diaminoporphyrazine 2a obtained by deselenation of hexa(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,2,5-selenadiazolo-porphyrazinatomagnesium(II) 1a was oxidized with air oxygen to seco-porphyrazinedicarboxamide 3a which upon acid treatment is converted to 2-oxy-4-aminopyraziniporphyrazine 4b - porphyrazine analogue containing pyrazine in place of one pyrrole ring.

При окислении кислородом воздуха вицинального диаминопорфиразина 2а, полученного при деселенировании гекса(4-трет-бутилфенил)-1,2,5-селенадиазолопорфиразинатомагния(11) 1а, образуется секо-порфиразин-дикарбоксамид 3а, превращающийся при действии кислоты в 2-оксо-4-аминопиразинипорфиразин 4Ь - новый порфиразиноид, в котором одно из пиррольных колец замещено на пиразиновый фрагмент.
Ключевые слова: Диаминопорфиразин, секо-порфиразин, дикарбоксамид, пиразинипорфиразин.
Porphyrazines containing fused 1,2,5-selenadiazole ring(s) can be easily deselenated upon treatment with H2S in pyridine solution with formation of vicinal aminoporphyrazines,[1] which can be used directly for preparation of various peripherally functionalized species -e.g. porphyrazines with fused pyrazine ring(s)[1] or attached formamide groups,[2] Schiff-base porphyrazines and their metal complexes.[3] In these works diaminoporphyrazine derivatives were obtained only in solution and used directly for further modifications. Recently we have studied the deselenation hexa(4-feri-butylphenyl)-1,2,5-selenadiazolo-porphyrazines 1a,b.[4] Diaminoporphyrazines 2a,b were
obtained in solution but our attempts to isolate them in solid form failed due to some side reactions. We have supposed that this can be connected with oxidation processes, similarly as it was reported[5] for bis(dialkylamino)porphyrazines oxidizing by air oxygen to seco-porphyrazine derivatives due to scission of the electron-rich C=C double bond between two vicinal NAlk2 groups.
In order to verify this hypothesis we have dissolved the Mg11 complex 1,2,5-selenadiazoloporphyrazine 1a[4] (50 mg, 40 |M) in 50 ml of deaerated pyridine and bubbled dry H2S to achieve its complete conversion to Mg11 diaminoporphyrazine 2a. Its UV-Vis spectrum contains a broad

0-band with maximum at 649 nm (Figure 1, curve 1) instead of the initial narrow 0-bands at 614 and 683 nm typical for 1a.[4] After that argon was passed through the solution to eliminate residual H2S and then air was bubbled for 2 h. Oxidation by air oxygen led to disappearance of the broad band of diaminoporphyrazine at 649 nm and to growth of the new absorption bands at 583, 688 and 726 nm (Figure 1, curve 2). The absorption bands at 688 and 726 nm in the UV-Vis spectrum belong evidently to two different species, but we were unable to separate them using chromatography.

The MALDI-TOF mass-spectrum of the reaction mixture contains a number of peaks in the 1100-1300 Da region (Figure 2). The most intense peaks correspond to the molecular ions of the oxidized product - Mg11 complex of secoporphyrazinedicarboxamide 3a (m/z = 1192 [M+H]+, 1214 [M+Na]+, 1230 [M+K]+).
Difficulties in separation of Mg11 porphyrazines is a common problem[6] arising from their tendency to aggregation due to intermolecular H-bonding between coordinated water in one molecule and N- or O-donor centers in another. Since metal free porphyrazines can be often more easily chromatographically separated, we have demetallated the reaction mixture obtained after oxidation by treatment with CF3COOH in CH2Cl2 and using gradual column chromatography on Al2O3 with CHCl3-MeOH have obtained the product 4b as a main fraction^ Its MALDI-TOF mass-spectrum contains a single peak of the molecular ion with m/z = 1151 (Figure 3). This value is less by 18 Da than expected for metal-free seco-porphyrazinedicarboxamide 3b (m/z = 1169) indicating that it belongs to a dehydration

product. Indeed, two neghbouring carboxamide groups in 3 can undergo dehydration, especially easy in the acidic conditions, with closure of 6-member ring and formation of cyclic iminoimide of secoporphyrazinedicarboxylic acid for which three tautomeric forms 4-6 are possible.
The DFT calculations (B3LYP/6-31G* basis set) indicate that the tautomer 4b containing 6-amino-2-pyrazinone unit is by more that 12 kcal/mol more stable than alternative imidoimide 5b or 2-imino-6-pyrazinol 6b.
The 1H NMR spectrum in CDCl3 is consistent with structure 4b and contains along with signals of six 4-tert-butylphenyl groups in the aromatic and aliphatic regions (8.4-8.3, 7.8-7.6 and 1.55, 1.43 ppm) the broad signal of two internal NH groups in the high field (-1.39 ppm) and singlet of the NH2 group at 3.67 ppm. The IR bands observed at 3221, 1732 and 1661 cm-1 are also in agreement with the presence of the 6-membered ring with a NH2-C=N-C=O fragment.
Porphyrin analogues in which one of the pyrrole rings is substituted by 6-membered heterocycle are known[7] and named, e.g. as benziporphyrins or pyriporphyrins for the species containing benzene or pyridine rings, respectively. Therefore, the obtained porphyrazine analogue with pyrazine fragment instead of one pyrrole ring can be named as pyraziniporphyrazine derivative (unlike pyrazinopor-phyrazines contaning fused pyrazine ring(s)). So far among corresponding porphyrazine derivatives only phthalo-cyanine analogues were reported (so called three-quarter phthalocyanines) in which one of the isoindole ring is substituted by benzene or pyridine ring.[8,9] It is noteworthy that the presence of highly aromatic benzene or pyridine ring instead of one of the pyrrole or isoindole unit interupts the 18n-electron conjugation in the internal 16-membered macrocycle making it non-aromatic. As a result the resonance of the internal NH protons in such molecules as benziporphyrins[10] is observed in the low field region (ca. 9-10 ppm) unlike common porphyrins showing this resonance in the high field (-1 ^ -4 ppm) due to strong shielding effect of the aromatic macrocycle. Non-metallated three-quarter phthalocyanines containing bridging benzene or pyridine ring (benzi- and pyriphthalocyanines) are very unstable and exhibit no absorption bands above 550 nm.[911]
The resonance of the internal NH protons in the obtained pyraziniporphyrazine 4b is observed in the strong
field (-1.39 ppm) indicating that aromaticity of the internal 16-membered macrocycle is retained and is similar with that observed for the corresponding non-metallated 1,2,5-selenadiazoloporphyrazine 1b (8NH = -1.56 ppm).[4] The high aromaticity of the internal macrocycle in 4b is explained by non-aromatic character of the pyrazine unit, which is in fact 2,3-dihydro-2-pyrazinone system. For structurally similar 2-oxybenzi- and 2-oxypyriporphyrins the NH resonances were also observed in the high field indicating the aromatic character of the macrocycle.[7a]
Interestingly that UV-Vis spectra of non-metallated pyraziniporphyrazine 4b and 1,2,5-selenadiazoloporphyr-azine 1b are similar (Figure 4) and differ only by bathochro -mic shift of the Soret band (by 8 nm) and the long-wave component of the Q-band (by 13 nm). Usually for seco-porphyrazine derivatives the value of the bathochromic shift is much larger. Thus, for bis(A,A-dimethylcarboxa-mide) of hexapropylsecoporphyrazine the bathochromic shift of the Q-band is ca. 40 nm as compared to the corresponding 1,2,5-selenadiazole derivative.[5] The theoretical calculations accomplished for the model species without tert-butyl groups by ZINDO/S method (Figure 5) also indicate that the spectra of pyraziniporphyrazine 4 should be similar in position of the 0-band to the spectra of corresponding porphyrazines, while a bathochromic shift is expected for the Qx component in the case of seco-por-phyrazine derivative 3. The Q-bands at 726 and 688 nm in the UV-Vis spectrum obtained after oxidation of the Mgn complex 2a with air oxygen (Figure 1, curve 2) can be assigned to seco-porphyrazine 3a and pyraziniporhyrazine 4a, respectively.
The maximum of the fluorescence spectrum for 4b is located at 734 nm (Figure 4, curve 3). The value of the Stock's shift (21 nm) is larger than it was obtained for phenyl substituted 1,2,5-selanadiazoloporphyrazine 1b (9 nm).[12] The fluorescence quantum yield for 4b is only 3.6 %. This might be connected with predominant non-radiative deactivation of the excited states, as is often the case for low-symmetry porphyrazines with efficient singlet oxygen generation ability.[5]
In summary, we have observed formation of the first representative of pyraziniporphyrazine - the novel type of aromatic porphyrazine analogues. The presence of 6-amino-2-pyrazinone fragment should be favorable for complementary
