An N‐confused phlorin isomer bearing a dipyrrin moiety at the α‐position of the confused pyrrole ring ( 1 ) was synthesized. Pd II and B III coordination at the peripheral prodigiosin‐like moiety of 1 afforded the corresponding complexes 2 and 3 . Reflux of 2 in triethylamine (TEA) converted the meso ‐phenyl into the Pd II ‐coordinating phenoxy group to afford 4 . Under the same reaction conditions, TEA was linked to the α‐position of the dipyrrin unit in 3 as an N,N‐diethylaminovinyl group to afford 5 . Furthermore, peripheral coordination of B III in 3 and 5 improved the planarity of the phlorin macrocycle and thus facilitated the coordination of Ag III at the inner cavity to afford 3‐Ag and 5‐Ag , respectively. These results provide an effective approach for developing unique porphyrinoids through peripheral coordination.
