A one pot synthesis route was used to produce meso substituted copper based metalloporphyrin copper-tetraphenyl porphyrin (CuTPP) using N, N-Di Methyl Formamide (DMF) as the solvent with 258 mg yield on the actual precursor using nitrogen as inert gas. 11.4% yield was obtained with the current strategy. The synthesized CuTPP was characterized using Carbon-Hydrogen-Nitrogen (CHN) analysis, Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Microwave Plasma - Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (MP-AES). The metal loading was found to be about 20.375 % on the porphyrinic ligands. © 2016, Rasayan Journal of Chemistry, c/o Dr. Pratima Sharma. All rights reserved.
