Synthesis of BF2 complexes of prodigiosin type oligopyrroles

J Org Chem. 2011 Sep 2;76(17):7263-8. doi: 10.1021/jo201183s. Epub 2011 Aug 9.

Abstract

We developed a simple, facile route for the synthesis of BF(2) complexes of prodigiosin type oligopyrroles and their cholesterol conjugates. This route gives an access to synthesize any desired meso-aryl-substituted 3-pyrrolyl BODIPYs which were not easily accessible earlier.
