Reactions of 1-aryl-2,5-dimethylpyrroles with ketones

Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

1-Aryl-2,5-dimethylpyrroles react with acyclic ketones with acid catalysis to give geminal di-2-pyrrolyl derivatives independently of the ratio of the reagents. The reaction of cyclohexanone and cycloheptanone occurs analogously with 2∶1 ratio of pyrrole to ketone. With an excess of cyclohexanone a cycloheptanone 1-aryl-2,5-dimethyl-3,4-dicyclohexenylpyrroles and substituted 4,5,6,7,8,9-hexahydro-2H-azulene[1,2-c]pyrrol-4-spirocycloheptane are produced respectively.
