More π, please! A free‐base, benzannelated triphyrin with a [2.1.1] bridging pattern ( 1 ) and an azulene‐derived tetracationic all‐carbon porphyrinoid ( 2 ) are discussed. Compound 1 can be used to form metal triphyrin complexes, and 2 shows potential in molecular electronics and as a receptor for weakly binding anions.
