The methyl zinc (3{sup 1}R)- and (3{sup 1}S)-[8Et, 12Me] bacteriopheophorbides d - analogs of the light-harvesting bacteriochlorophylls in photosynthetic bacteria - self-assemble in nonpolar solvents. While in dilute dichloromethane solution both epimers prevail in their monomeric form, complex equilibria of aggregates with gradually red-shifting Q{sub y} absorptions are formed at either higher concentration or lower temperature or upon dilution with hexane. Dynamic {sup 1}H-NMR and FT-IR spectroscopies show that the 3{sup 1}-hydroxy group participates directly in the self-assembly through oxygen ligation to zinc and through hydrogen bridging to the 13{sup 1}-keto group of the ligated hydroxyls in intermediate unsymmetrical dimers. The basic unit, combining three molecules through >C=O...H-O...Zn bonding, and the existence of equilibria between monomers, dimers, and oligomers of varying size depending on the conditions parallel the scheme proposed previously for bacteriochlorophylls c and d. In some respects the CD, {sup 1}H-NMR, and IR spectral behavior of the two epimers indicates diastereoselective conformational and kinetic differences at the levels of dimers and larger oligomers. Inter alia, the self-assembly of a 1:1 mixture of the (3{sup 1}R) and (3{sup 1}S) epimers proceeds more rapidly than that of the separate epimers. 29 refs., 11 figs.
