(4Z)-8-(5-Carboxypentyl)-9-butyl-2,3-diethyl-dipyrrin-1-one (1), a new analogue of xanthobilirubic acid, (4Z)-8-(carboxyethyl)-2,7,9-dimethyl-3-ethyl-dipyrrin-1-one, was synthesized in four steps from the known 2,3-diethyl-dipyrrin-1-one. Whereas xanthobilirubic acid (which is a model for one-half of bilirubin, the yellow pigment of jaundice) and its homologues with hexanoic and longer acid chains at C-8 engage only in intermolecular hydrogen bonding, 1 is found to engage in intramolecular hydrogen bonding. In CDCl(3) solution, dipyrrinone 1 adopts an anti-Z conformation, and its hexanoic acid COOH is hydrogen-bonded to the lactam H-N-C=O and to the pyrrole C(7)-H but not to the pyrrole NH. The latter constitutes an example of a hydrogen bond of the type C-H...O=C, weak and detected typically in crystals. Dipyrrinone 1 is found by vapor pressure osmometry to be monomeric in CHCl(3), but its methyl ester (2) tends toward being dimeric, like that of methyl xanthobilirubinate, which is dimeric.
