    Treatment of meso2-ethylhexyl-3-mercaptopropionate substituted porphyrins with base at room temperature generated a porphyrin thiolate anion which in situreacted in a nucleophilic aromatic substitution (S sub(N)Ar) reaction with remaining thioether derivative. This reaction yielded S-linked bisporphyrins in good yields, with mechanistic insight obtained viadisplacement reactions. Additionally, S sub(N)Ar of the thioether chain was achieved using S- and organolithium nucleophiles.
