Abstract
Treatment with mercury(II) acetate of metal complexes of porphyrins bearing peripherally unsubstituted positions gives the corresponding mercurated derivatives, using the palladium-olefin reaction this observation is exploited in the synthesis of coproporphyrin III tetramethyl ester (2), harderoporphyrin trimethyl ester (3), and isoharderoporphyrin trimethyl ester (4).
