Title A simple approach to the synthesis of highly functionalized 3-alkylidene-2,3-dihydro-1H-Pyrrole-2-ol derivatives and related pyrroles
Type JournalPaper
Keywords Acetylenic esters  Dibenzoylacetylene  Enaminones  Pyrroles
Abstract The reaction of various primary amines with acetylenic esters at ambient temperature in THF/H2O (50:50) produced related enaminones. Subsequently reaction of these in situ prepared enaminones with dibenzoylacetylene leads to 3-alkylidene-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrol-2-olderivatives in good yields. The reaction of these products with various alcohols in the presence of a catalytic amount of HCl produced highly functionalized pyrroles in nearly quantitative yields.
