| In order to investigate the effect of substituted azulenes for azuliporphyrin synthesis, 6-tert-butylazulene and 6-methylazulene were synthesized. The products were used in the azuliporphyrin forming reactions of Rothemund synthesis and 3+1 condensations. It had also been found earlier azulenes could form a calix[4]azulene. Would this work for substituted versions? The results for the 6-tert-butylazulene were more successful than the 6-methylazulene. Some of the Rothemund approaches and 3+1 condensations worked for the 6-tert-butylazulene as well as the calixarene reaction, but the 6-methyl version was only reactive to give the calixarene.
