Alternate syntheses of pyrromethanes and porphyrins using acid-modified montmorillonite K-10 clay

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919908086174

A variety of porphyrins and pyrromethanes are prepared using Montmorillonite clay mixed with a variety of acids (p-TsOH, BF₃ · Et₂O). The ease of use of the naturally occurring clay as a co-catalyst makes it an attractive reagent for
