Urochrome/urobilin (structure below) is a tetrapyrrole, with the pyrroles connected with methylene (ish) bridges. I'm wondering if there's a good way to "crack" this molecule (like a hydrocarbon) along the bridges to yield the individual pyrroles. I ask because pyrrole synthesis is involved, and urochrome is abundant.
