A general synthesis of 5-unsubstituted benzyl pyrrole-2-carboxylates was developed based on the reaction of β-nitroacetates with benzyl isocyanoacetate. The advantage of this route over other pyrrole syntheses was the regiochemical control of the substitution pattern on the pyrrole ring.

Benzyl esters of 5-unsubstituted pyrrole-2-carboxylic acids were prepared in excellent yields by the base-catalyzed condensation of benzyl isocyanoacetate with α-acetoxynitro compounds, or nitro-alkenes, in refluxing tetrahydrofuran. These pyrrolic products are important intermediates in the synthesis of porphyrins and related compounds.

As part of the development of binuclear transition-metal complexes capable of facilitating multielectron redox reactions of small molecules (such as O2 and N2), we have devised an efficient and synthetically flexible route to 5,15-disubstituted porphyrins which affords multigram quantities of isomerically pure porphyrins without recourse to chromatography.The 5,15-substituents are principally amine ((CH2)nNHR (n = 1, 2, 3; R = H, CH3)) and acid chloride ((CH2)nC(O)Cl (n = 1, 2)) groups.Reactions of the two types of substituted porphyrins lead to a new class of "face to face" porphyrins with interporphyrin amide bridges of varying lenght (4-7 atoms).An amine-linked dimer has been produced by the reduction of an appropriate amide linkage.Purely hydrocarbon-linked dimers have also been prepared by the direct coupling of bis(dipyrrylmethanes) bridged by aliphatic (CH2)n (n = 4, 6) chains.The dimeric porphyrin compounds have been fully characterized by their visible and NMR spectra.The crystal and molecular structure of the bis(copper(II)) complex of one of the amide-linked dimers, the first such determination of a "face to face" porphyrin, is reported.Crystal data for Cu2C74N10O2H86*2H2O*C7H8: space group -P21/c; a = 11.878 (6) Angstroem, b = 13.304 (7) Angstroem; c = 23.725 (13) Angstroem, β = 114.60 (2) deg at -140 deg C; Z = 2.A crystallographic center of symmetry is imposed on the dimer.The structure was refined on all data including w on F2 of 0.103 and 0.152.For the portion of data having > 3?() (3213 observations) the values for R and Rw on F are 0.063 and 0.073.The spectral properties of these new porphyrin dimers are discussed with reference to the structural analysis.A striking feature of the structure is a shear-like displacement of one porphyrin unit with respect to the other by an average distance of 4.95 Angstroem.The Cu...Cu separation is 6.332 (4) Angstroem and the interpalanar separation of the two porphyrin rings is 3.87 Angstroem.In solution at ambient temperatures, conformational changes involving motions of the two porphyrin rings cause considerable line broadening in the 1H NMR spectra of all 5,15-bridged dimers.However, at temperatures above 90 deg C conformational equilibria are sufficiently rapid to produce well-resolved spectra.
