%X Highly rapid and simple methodology has been developed for the quantitative synthesis of meso-substituted dipyrromethanes from lowest pyrrole/aldehyde ratio. The method was carried out by using SnCl2 2H2O as a catalyst under solvent free condition. The method is environmentally friendly, easy to workup, and gives excellent yield of the products.
