Synthetic pyrrole-based anion receptors date back to the 1990s. They have been extensively developed in the context of macrocyclic systems as expanded porphyrins and calixpyrroles, and related systems. The chemistry of open-chain pyrrolic systems is, in many respects, no less venerable. It also has more direct analogy to naturally occurring pyrrole-based anion binding motifs. However, it has not been the subject of a comprehensive review. Presented herein is a summary of efforts devoted to the creation of de novo pyrrole-based receptors, as well as the anion recognition chemistry of naturally occurring pyrrolic systems as prodigiosins and their synthetic analogues.

吡咯NH阴离子络合物。

合成的基于吡咯的阴离子受体可以追溯到1990年代。它们已经在大环系统的背景下得到了广泛的开发，例如扩展的卟啉和杯吡咯以及相关系统。在许多方面，开链吡咯体系的化学作用同样令人尊敬。它也与天然存在的基于吡咯的阴离子结合基序有更直接的类比。但是，它尚未成为全面审查的主题。本文介绍了致力于创建基于吡咯的从头受体的工作，以及天然存在的吡咯菌素及其合成类似物的吡咯体系的阴离子识别化学。
