The syntheses of the title compounds and their ¹H-NMR data are presented. Crystals of the representative compound ethyl, 1-(4-phenylbenzoyl)-pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,10]phenanthroline-3-carboxylate, with molecular formula C₃₁H₂₂N₂O₃, were found to crystallize in the triclinic system, space group P 1 with a = 7.8541(1), b = 11.2605(2), c = 13.4093(3) Å, = 92.244(1), = 90.292(1), = 106.475(1) and Z = 2.
