to afford nitro-substituted pyrroles in good yield when a catch-and-release
protocol was employed as a purification strategy.
Key words
pyrroles - immobilized reagents - heterocycles - multi-component

13 Experiments to try and exclude the
possibility of excess ethyl chloroformate being responsible for
the secondary products following addition to the nitrostyrene were conducted
using sub-stoichiometric quantities to quench the original TosMIC
anion. These reactions gave comparable crude mixtures accompanied
by the components from the standard Barton-Zard condensation.
The possibility that the TosMIC could still act as a leaving group
and consequently as an ethyl formate transfer agent can still not
be excluded.
14 The reaction between the lithio enolate 4 and ethyl acrylate gave only a mixture
of products from which only 7% of a rearrangement product
(ethyl 5-tosylpyrrole-1H -3-carboxylate)
could be isolated. ¹ H NMR and X-ray analysis was
used to confirm the structure.
