Replacing the central cobalt ion of vitamin B12by other metals has been a long‐held aspiration within the B12‐field. Herein, we describe the synthesis from hydrogenobyric acid of zincobyric acid (Znby) and zincobalamin (Znbl), the Zn‐analogues of the natural cobalt‐corrins cobyric acid and vitamin B12, respectively. The solution structures ofZnbyandZnblwere studied by NMR‐spectroscopy. Single crystals ofZnbywere produced, providing the first X‐ray crystallographic structure of a zinc corrin. The structures ofZnbyand of computationally generatedZnblwere found to resemble the corresponding CoII‐corrins, making such Zn‐corrins potentially useful for investigations of B12‐dependent processes. The singlet excited state ofZnbyhad a short life‐time, limited by rapid intersystem crossing to the triplet state.Znbyallowed the unprecedented observation of a corrin triplet (ET=190 kJ mol−1) and was found to be an excellent photo‐sensitizer for1O2(ΦΔ=0.70).
