Abstract

The Pd-catalyzed acylation reactions of terminal 3-ethynyl moieties of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) derivatives are described herein. Both acyl chlorides and acid anhydrides were valuable reagents for the coupling, resulting in the formation of π-conjugation extended Chl-a derivatives possessing a carbonyl-ethynyl group at the C3-position. The ultraviolet-visible absorption and fluorescence emission data were obtained in solution to evaluate the optical properties of the 3-ynone-linked Chl-a derivatives.
