Abstract
Grignard reaction of methyl pyropheophorbide-d (1) possessing a 3-form yl group with methyl magnesium iodide selectively gave methyl bacterio pheophorbide-d (2) possessing a 3-(1-hydroxyethyl) group. When (CH3MgI )-C-13 and CD3MgI were used as the Grignard reagents, specifically lab eled 2 were afforded, of which zinc complexes 3 serve as model compoun ds for natural bacteriochlorophylls-d.
