| Abstract: | We report the synthesis of three new dipyrrinone imine analogues and the characterisation of their self-association properties. Based on vapour pressure osmometry and nuclear magnetic resonance studies, placing the imine functional group at C(9) of the dipyrrinone disrupts the native self-association of the dipyrrinone core in a manner that correlates with the conformational A-value of the imine N-substituent. |
