| Abstract A new route for preparing porphyrins that bear up to four different meso-substituents (ABCD-porphyrins) has been developed. The route relies on the preparation of a 1-acyl-19-X bilane (1), which is derived from two dipyrromethane species. A lengthy study of suitable X groups, methods for stepwise conversion of 1 to the ABCD-porphyrin 2, and conditions for the latter transformation have been examined. A one-flask transformation also has been identified that gives the ABCD-porphyrin 2 from 1 in 65% yield. |
