The synthesis of novel metal-free (H(2)Pz) and metalloporphyrazines (MgPz), peripherally substituted with eight 5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine was performed by the cyclotetramerization of 1,5-bis(dibenz[b,f]azepinepropylthio)maleonitrile which was synthesized from 5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine and 1,10-diiodo-5,6-dicyano-4,7-dithia-5-decene. The new compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, IR, UV-vis and mass spectral data. (D 2007 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
