Abstract

The three-component reactions of phenacyl bromide or its derivatives, amine, and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of iron(III) chloride as a catalyst at room temperature afforded polysubstituted pyrroles in high yields.

Key words

polysubstituted pyrroles - three-component reaction - iron(III) chloride
