I have a hunch that sorting the list might be quite efficient. You should at 
least try

import operator
import itertools

a = ...
a.sort()
result = []
for key, group in itertools.groupby(a, key=operator.itemgetter(0)):
    minpair = maxpair = next(group)
    for maxpair in group:
        pass
    result.append((key, minpair[1], maxpair[1]))

for item in result:
    print(item)

to see whether it is good enough.
