Conjugated macrocyclic platforms have applications in imaging, single molecule magnetism, small molecule activation and catalysis. Corrole is the trivalent 19-membered-ring analogue of porphyrin. In the short history of metallocorrole development, this ligand has served as a platform for catalytic dioxygen reduction and interesting spectroscopic and computation studies centred around its electronically non-innocent structure.This research highlights the preparation and early reactivity studies of the first alkali metal, early transition metal, lanthanide, and actinide corrole complexes. Additionally, new ligand motifs targeted at surface-functionalization with metallocorroles will be presented.
