Abstract: | A facile synthesis for cyanochlorin related to chlorophyll from a formyl-substituted chlorin, by the oxidation ofmethyl (pyro)pheophorbide-α, was accomplished. These readily available chlorin aldehydes were assembled together with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in a tandem process to produce the corresponding chlorin nitriles inmoderate to good yields. The formation of chlorin nitrile was discussed and a possible mechanism for the corresponding cyanation reaction was tentatively proposed. |
