Experimental Details
Materials. Reagents and solvents used in this work were of commercially available
reagent-quality unless otherwise stated. Deuterated solvent, CDCl3 (99.7% deuterated) containing
0.03% tetramethylsilane (TMS), used for NMR measurements was purchased from Wako Pure
Chemical Industries, Ltd. and used as received. Dichloromethane and THF used for
electrochemical measurements were distilled from CaH2 before use. Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium
hexafluorophosphate (n-Bu4NPF6) was used as a supporting electrolyte. The free-base
2,7,12,17-tetrapropylporphycene and its nickel(II) complex 3 were prepared according to the
literature methods.1
Instruments. UV/Vis absorption spectra were measured with a Hitachi U-3310
spectrophotometer using CH2Cl2 as a solvent. IR spectra were obtained with a JASCO FT/IR-460
Plus spectrometer with a KBr method. 1H NMR spectra were recorded with a Bruker AVANCE
500 FT-NMR spectrometer. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm with reference to TMS.
Elemental analysis was performed by the Service Center of Elementary Analysis of Organic
Compounds at Kyushu University. Electrochemical measurements were carried out in a
nitrogen-filled glovebox with a standard three-electrode configuration using glassy carbon,
platinum wire and Ag/AgCl as working, counter and reference electrodes, respectively. Under our
experimental conditions, a half-wave potential (E1/2) of ferrocene/ferricinium (Fc/Fc+) redox
couple was observed at +0.60 V and +0.48 V vs. Ag/AgCl, respectively, in THF and CH2Cl2
containing 0.1 M n-Bu4NPF6. EPR spectra were recorded with a Bruker EMX 8/2.7 spectrometer.
X-ray diffraction study. X-ray crystallography was performed using a Bruker SMART APEX
CCD diffractometer quipped with graphite-monochromated Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å)
from a fine-focus sealed tube operated at 50 kV and 30 mA. A single crystal of 1 was mounted on
a glass fiber and the data frames were integrated using SAINT2 and merged to give a unique data

set for the structure determination. Absorption corrections by SADABS3 were carried out. The
structure was solved by a direct method and refined by the full-matrix least-squares method on all
F2 data using the SHELXL-974 suite of programs. All non-hydrogen atoms were anisotropically
refined. Hydrogen atoms except those on disordered carbon atoms were placed using
geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) =
1.2Ueq(CH and CH2), Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(CH3). Hydrogen atoms on inner nitrogen atoms were
placed with an occupancy of 0.5 and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).
Synthesis.
2,3-Dihydro-2,7,12,17-tetrapropylporphycene (1). 2,7,12,17-Tetrapropylporphycene (20.1 mg,
0.0421 mmol) was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (12 mL). To this were added Zn powder (0.273 g, 4.17
mmol) and an aqueous solution of 2 M HCl (12 mL), and the mixture was stirred for 30 min.
After neutralizing with NaHCO3, Zn was removed by filtration. The organic layer was washed
twice with water. After dried over MgSO4, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The
remaining solid was dissolved in n-hexane and filtered. Evaporation of the solvent gave 1 as a
purple solid which was recrystallized from ethyl acetate. Yield: 12.9 mg (64%). 1H NMR (500

containing n-Bu4NPF6 are shown in Fig. S11−S13.
Chemical reduction of 2 for EPR spectroscopy. In a nitrogen-filled glovebox, compound 2 (0.5
mg, 0.9 µmol) was dissolved in THF (super dehydrated, Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) in
an EPR quartz tube. A one equiv. of freshly prepared sodium anthracenide in THF was added to
the solution. The EPR tube was sealed, taken out from the glovebox, and the EPR spectrum,
shown in Fig. S14, was recorded at 125 K.
Controlled potential electrolysis. In a nitrogen-filled glovebox, compound 2 (1.2 mg, 2.1 µmol)
was dissolved in a THF solution (5 mL) containing n-Bu4NPF6 (387 mg, 1.0 mmol) and DDT
(13.6 mg, 42 µmol). A three-electrode cell consisting of a platinum mesh (0.8 × 3 cm) working
electrode, Zn plate (0.5 × 5 cm) counter electrode and an Ag/AgCl reference electrode was used
for the controlled-potential electrolysis. The electrode potential was applied to −2.00 V vs. Fc/Fc+.
After 3-h electrolysis, the solvent was removed by evaporation. The residue was loaded onto a
silica gel column (Silica gel 60N, Kanto Chemicals) and eluted with CH2Cl2/n-hexane (1:6, v/v).
The colorless first band was collected and the solvent was removed. The residual oil was
dissolved in CDCl3. The formation of dechlorinated products, DDD and DDMU, was confirmed
by 1H NMR spectroscopy as shown in Fig. S15.
