Pyrrole is a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound, a five-membered ring with the formula C4H4NH. It is a colourless volatile liquid that darkens readily upon exposure to air. Substituted derivatives are also called pyrroles, e.g., N-methylpyrrole, C4H4NCH3. Porphobilinogen, a trisubstituted pyrrole, is the biosynthetic precursor to many natural products such as heme. A heterocyclic compound i...

A strategy for synthesizing highly functionalized cyclohepta[b]indoles through a concise (4 + 3) cycloaddition-cyclization-elimination sequence is described. The cycloaddition features nitrogen-stabilized oxyallyl cations derived from epoxidations of N-aryl-N-sulfonyl-substituted allenamides, while the cyclization and elimination employed an intramolecular Grignard addition and a one-step Chuga...

Symmetric 2,5-bisazopyrroles 2(a-d) were synthesized by a one-step reaction of substituted phenyl diazonium salts [R'(Ph)N2(+)Cl-] [a, R' = 4-N(CH3)2; b, R' = 2-OH; c, R' = 2-CO2H; d, R' = 4-NO2] with pyrrole under basic conditions. Asymmetric 2,5-bisazopyrroles 3(a-d) were synthesized by reacting substituted phenyl diazonium salts [R''(Ph)N2(+)Cl-] (a, R'' = 4-OCH(3); b, R'' = H; c, R'' = 4-Br...

a series of n-substituted-2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives (tzds) were prepared via n-alkylation of 2,4-tzd at position 3 using substituted benzyl halides. synthesized n-substituted-2,4-tzd was then substituted at position 5 with substituted aromatic aldehyde according to knoevenagel condensation method. structures of the compounds were elucidated using various spectral techniques viz. ir, 1hn...

A convenient procedure for the synthesis of 5-(4-acetamidophenyl)-10,15,20tris(4-substituted phenyl) porphyrins from dipyrrolomethane is reported. meso-(4Substituted phenyl) dipyrrolomethanes were obtained in yields of 72-84%. The amide porphyrins were isolated with appreciable yields of 15-17%. Introduction The design of new material systems involves the synthesis of asymmetric porphyrins. Thu...

An effective gold-catalyzed intermolecular nitrene transfer by the reaction of 2H-azirines and ynamides is reported, which provides highly substituted pyrroles in a straightforward manner. This transformation proceeds under mild conditions and gives the polysubstituted pyrroles in good-to-excellent yields. Preliminary results indicate that a nongold carbenoid pathway is preferred for current py...

Carboxhydrazides 3 were synthesized by reaction of substituted furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxhydrazides 1 with 4-oxo-4H-chromene-2-carboxaldehyde 2 in the presence of 3-methyl-benzenesulfonic acid in ethanol. Carboxhydrazides 3 were used as ligands for synthesis of Cu, Co, and Ni complexes 4.

Nine pyrrole-containing compounds were designed introducing reasonable structural novelties within the framework of the architecture of confirmed tuberculostatics. The new products were synthesized via adopted Paal-Knorr cyclization by condensation of three 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds with a set of substituted anilines, acting as primary amines. Preliminary in vitro tests have already registered e...

The Grignard, Wittig, Tebbe, Horner-Emmons, and Reformatsky reactions of the 4-oxoproline esters gave the corresponding 4-alylated or 4-alkylidenated products, respectively. The products were properly treated with bases to cause aromatization, giving 4-substituted pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid esters such as methyl 4-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate, which is a trail pheromone of Atta texana.
