Abstract
The first synthesis of meso-meso linked antiaromatic isophlorin has been described. The synthetic pathway is different from the routinely employed oxidative coupling of meso free porphyrin into its dimer and oligomers. Spectroscopic and structural analyses revealed paratropic ring current effects and each unit was found to be orthogonal to each other.
