5,20-Di(pyridin-2-yl)-[28]hexaphyrin(1.1.1.1.1.1) 7 was prepared and characterized as a stable H眉ckel antiaromatic molecule with a dumbbell-like structure stabilized by effective intramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions involving the 2-pyridyl nitrogen atoms. Pd(II) metalation of 7 afforded two bis-Pd(II) complexes, 9-syn and 9-anti, whose structures are rigidly held by Pd(II) coordination, rendering 9-syn to be nonaromatic because of its highly distorted structure and 9-anti to be H眉ckel antiaromatic because of its enforced planar dumbbell structure. In contrast, protonation of 7 with methanesulfonic acid (MSA) led to the formation of its triprotonated species 7H₃, which has been shown to take on twisted conformations with M枚bius aromaticity in CH₂Cl₂, while the structure was held to be a planar rectangular conformation in the crystal. Excited-state dynamics were measured for 7, 7H₃, 9-syn, and 9-anti, which indicated their electronic nature to be antiaromatic, aromatic, nonaromatic, and antiaromatic, respectively.
