An absolute p K a value of about 36 in acetonitrile is obtained for porphyrin from its reaction with phosphazene bases. The monoanion 1 is stable in aprotic solvents and was characterized by NMR and UV/ Vis spectroscopy. The remaining central proton in the monoanion migrates between the four nitrogen atoms much faster than the two protons in the parent compound.
