The direct preparation of free-base porphyrins possessing reactive functional groups such as esters, halides, amide, nitriles, and acetals is described. This method relies on a simple one-pot procedure that involves sequential palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of brominated free-base porphyrins with functionalized aryl and alkenylmagnesium reagents, which are readily prepared by iodine-magnesium exchange of the corresponding organic iodides with the turbo Grignard reagent i-PrMgCl·LiCl, followed by demetallation of the resulting magnesium porphyrins under very mild conditions involving either a 1.2 M aqueous methanol solution of HCl or a 0.1 M methanol solution of citric acid at ambient temperature.
