Abstract
A synthesis of the d,l and meso forms of isochrysohermidin 3 is outlin ed which employs the singlet oxygen oxidation of pyrroles as the key s tep. The bipyrrole precursor 8 was synthesized from a 5-hydroxy monopy rrole which, in turn, was prepared by addition of methylamine to a vin yl vicinal tricarbonyl.
