A. Jauma et al., REACTIVITY OF PYRROLE PIGMENTS .19. ON THE STRUCTURE OF CU(II) AND ZN(II) CHELATES OF DIPYRRINS IN SOLUTION, Monatshefte fuer Chemie, 127(8-9), 1996, pp. 927-933
The Cu(II) and Zn(II) chelates of 1,2,3,7,9-pentamethyldipyrrin and 1,
2,3,7,9-pentamethyl-8-sulfodipyrrin are studied. When metal acetates a
re used for the formation of the metal complexes, dipyrrinate metal ac
etates could be detected as precursors of the bis-dipyrrinates.
