17. Unlike reactions to produce the bisporphyrin, the yield of monoporphyrin 8 was high. However, 10 equiv of (trimethylsilyl)- acetylene was used. This large excess is not economically feasible for reactions using 9 and is precluded by stoichiometry requirements in reactions using 6.

24. 25,26 excellent yields for double couplings but uses excess alkyne. Because of our different stoichiometry requirements, and our more elaborate coupling partners, we cannot use an excess of alkyne.
