The unnatural bile pigments 17-desvinyl-17-ethylbilirubin-VIIIα, mesobilirubin-VIIIα and 12-despropionic acid-12-ethyl mesobilirubin-XIIIα were synthesized via (1) "reverse scrambling" of bilirubin-XIIIα or mesobilirubin-IXα with mesobilirubin-IVα or etiobilirubin-IVγ or (2) following coupling of xanthobilirubic acid methyl ester with ψ-xanthobilirubic acid methyl ester, or coupling of xanthobilirubic acid methyl ester with kryptopyrromethenone.
