Abstract

Cyclic voltammetry and polarography measurements in anhydrous dimethylformamide indicate that 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-methoxycarbonylmethyl-3′,4,4,4′-tetramethyl-5-oxo-2,2′-pyrromethen-5′-carboxylic acidtert-butylester [a 3,4-dihydro-5(1H)-pyrromethenone] is both easier to reduce and to oxidize than structurally related 5(1H)-pyrromethenones.

Zusammenfassung

Cyclische Voltammetrie und Polarographie in wasserfreiem Dimethylformamid haben gezeigt, daß 1,3,4,5-Tetrahydro-3-methoxycarbonylmethyl-3′,4,4,4′-tetramethyl-5-oxo-2,2′-pyrromethen-5′-carbonsäure-tert-butylester sowohl leichter zu reduzieren als auch zu oxidieren ist als 5(1H)-Pyrromethenone mit ähnlicher Struktur.
