5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-Hydroxy-phenyl)-porphyrin (200 mg, 0.294 mmol) is dissolved and potassium carbonate (487 mg, 3.53 mmol, 12 eqv.) is suspended under argon in absolute DMF (50 mL) and the mixture heated to 55° C. A solution of nonyl bromide (49.4 μl, 0.206 mmol, 0.7 eqv.) in absolute DMF (10 mL) is added dropwise during 30 min. The mixture is stirred at 55° C. for 2 h. The solvent is removed in vacuo at 50° C., water (80 mL) is added and the mixture extracted with ethyl acetate (3×40 mL). The combined organic extracts are dried (Na2SO4) and solvent removed under reduced pressure. The product is isolated by chromatography on a column (300 g) of silica. Tetra-alkylated and tri-alkylated compounds are eluted with toluene:ethyl acetate (30:1 by vol.), di-substituted compound (trans-isomer) with toluene:ethyl acetate (15:1 by vol.). di-substituted compound (cis-isomer) with toluene:ethyl acetate (10:1 by vol.) and the desired product (mono-alkylated compound) is eluted with toluene:ethyl acetate (5:1 by vol.). The solvent is removed under reduced pressure and the residue dried at high vacuum to afford the product as a violet solid.
