Abstract

Methyl pheophorbide-a ester was used as starting material, and the chemical reactions, including allomerization, aldol condensation with formaldehyde, nucleophilic addition on the cycloketone, Tiffeneau-demjanov rearrangement with diazomethane, were carried out making use of active reaction regions linked with C-pyrrol subring to establish different carbonyl structures on the exocyclic ring and 12-position. From these new-formed active groups, the novel structures such as nitrogenous heterocycle and spirocycle were formed by condensations with o-phenylenediamine or o-aminobenzaldehyde, 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with formaldehyde and sarcosine, and other structure transformations. A series of unreported chlorins related to chlorophyll were synthesized and their chemical structures were characterized by elemental analysis, UV, IR and 1H NMR spectra.
