29. [11c] We propose to nickname the 3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl substituent "Crossley's crutch", as it helps porphyrin chemists in four ways: (i) it solubilizes complex architectures and minimizes π-stacking of meso-aryl porphyrins, thanks to its steric bulge, (ii) it prevents electrophilic substitution in the adjacent β-pyrrolic positions and on the benzene ring, thus enabling very selective functionalization of the porphyrins, (iii) it packs well into crystals, enabling X-ray diffraction studies to be carried out[12,24] but at the same time enables visualization by scanning probe techniques[34] for noncrystalline samples, and (iv) thanks to the sharp NMR tertbutyl singlet, visible even in nanomolar concentrations, it allows easy identification of compounds and of their symmetry in order to allow monitoring of complex reaction mixtures.

41. An analogy to the (bacterio)chlorophyll numbering is preserved here. Confusion may arise due to systematic nomenclature, which places a hydroxy(m)ethyl group after formyl, thus reversing the numbering sense of the macrocycle between the different compounds in the Scheme.
42. C = O frequencies give strong indications of whether an acyl substituent has the carbonyl group in conjugation with the macrocycle (A. D. Bhise, M. Linke-Schaetzel, D. Moss, T. S. Balaban, manuscript in preparation).
