Total syntheses of physocyanobilin and its derivative bearing a photoreactive group at the D-ring accomplished by developing a new and efficient method for the construction of A,B-rings component, which consists of the Wittig-type new coupling reaction of 4-(1-methoxyethyl or 1- tosylethyl)-3-methyl-5-tosyl-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-one and a 2-formyl pyrrole derivative in the presence of (n)Bu3P and a base, followed by reduction with aluminum amalgam and a subsequent acid or base treatment.

3,4-Disubstituted Δ3-pyrrolin-2-ones were prepared in high yields via 5-tosyl-Δ3-pyrrolin-2-ones (4) starting from 2-tosylpyrroles regioselectively.The compounds 4 were found to be useful intermediates for the preparation of variety of Δ3-pyrrolin-2-one derivatives.The reactions of 4 with various nucleophiles and active methylene compounds bearing an appropriate leaving group are described.
