Dihydrodipyrrins are key building blocks for the synthesis of hydroporphyrins, many of which have important biological activity. The title compounds were prepared in stereo- and regioselective fashion by a three-step sequence consisting of (1) Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling-cyclization of 2-iodopyrroles with γ-alkynoic acids to afford enelactones of the desired substitution pattern, (2) methylenation at the lactone carbonyl group employing the Petasis reagent, and (3) in situ enol-ether hydrolysis and amination of the resultant 1,4-diketone to close the pyrroline ring (nine examples). Yields for each step were generally high, although in substrates not blocked by geminal substitution aromatization to a dipyrromethane is a competing side reaction.
