Abstract
The conditions of synthesis of octalkyl-5,15-diphenylporphyrins obtain ed through condensation of dipyrrolyl methanes with benzaldehydes are optimized. The highest yield (45-55%) is achieved using hexane, chloro form, or methanol as the solvent, mono- or trichloroacetic acid as the catalyst, and o-chloranil as an intermediate porphyrinogen-oxidizing agent.
