Octaethylisobacteriochlorin and its metal complexes are model substances for sirohy‐drochlorin . In the free tetrahydroporphyrin derivative, e.g. (1) , the trans vicinal ethyl groups are always arranged diaxially; in the metal compounds, e.g. (2) , the nickel( II ) ions cause considerable deformation of the whole porphyrin skeleton, such that the diequatorial conformation of the vicinal ethyl groups is energetically favored.
