The first ethylene‐bridged bis(chlorins) (for example 1 ) were obtained by coupling reactions of formylchlorins, either as the nickel( II ) or zinc( II ) complexes, with lowvalent titanium. They can be partially oxidized at reflux in toluene/acetic acid to afford trans ‐chlorin/porphyrin compounds, or fully oxidized with isomerization to the cis ‐configured bis(porphyrin)s.
