8,12‐Dibromo‐5,15‐bis(pentafluorophenyl)corrole and its Ag(III) complex were prepared via intramolecular oxidative coupling of a 8,12‐dibromobilane precursor. The Ag(III) complex was allowed for further transformation via Suzuki coupling reaction. Thus, 2‐aminophenyl group was coupled at one of the β ‐positions, and subsequent demetalation followed by oxidation with MnO 2 afforded 8,10‐fused iminoisocorrole in good yields. The iminoisocorrole exhibited weak antiaromaticity due to the C(+)−N(−) polarized resonance contribution as evidenced by 1 H NMR spectrum, UV/vis absorption spectra, cyclic voltammetry, and theoretical calculations.
