In the title compound, C(18)H(14)N(2)O(3), one of the phenyl rings is almost coplanar with the pyrrole ring [dihedral angle = 2.56 (14)°], whereas the other one is tilted by 63.01 (6)° with respect to the pyrrole ring. Since the NH group is shielded from possible acceptors, this group is not involved in hydrogen bonding.

The pyrrole derivatives la, b and 2a, b were used as precursors for the preparation of N-substituted pyrrole derivatives 3a, b-9a, b and pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines 13-16. Also, all the newly prepared products were tested for anti-inflammatory activity as analogues to fenamates, and some of them revealed moderate anti-inflammatory activity compared to the standard drug indomethacin.

The title compound, C(14)H(17)NO(5)S, was prepared by oxidation of (2R,3S,4R)-2-phenyl-sulfonyl-methyl-1-hy-droxy-3,4-iso-pro-pyl-idene-dioxy-pyrrolidine. Its crystal structure confirms unequivocally its configuration. Two inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions help to establish the packing.

In the title compound, C(16)H(16)Cl(4)N(3)O(2)P, the phosphoryl and carbonyl groups are anti to each other. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 33.59 (16)°. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked via N-H⋯O=P and N-H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds, into an extended chain running parallel to the a axis.

The aminocoumarin antibiotic clorobiocin contains a 5-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylic acid unit, attached via an ester bond to the 3-OH group of the deoxysugar moiety. To investigate candidate genes responsible for the formation of this ester bond, a gene inactivation experiment was carried out in the clorobiocin producer Streptomyces roseochromogenes var. oscitans DS 12.976. An in-frame deletion wa...

Polypyrrole is a conjugated polymer prototype of conducting polymers. The energetically preferred spatial conformation of n-pyrrole oligomers (n=1-24) in both the reduced and oxidized phases is obtained and analyzed in this paper within the hybrid density functional theory. Binding energies, gap energies, radius of gyration, end-to-end distance, and vibrational frequencies are reported as funct...

Oxygen-dependent coproporphyrinogen III oxidase catalyzes the sequential decarboxylation of the propionate substituents present on the A and B rings of coproporphyrinogen III in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Although extensive experimental investigation of this enzyme has already afforded many insights into its reaction mechanism, several key features (such as the substrate binding mode, the c...

he first meso-octaalkylporphyrinogen (calix[4]pyrrole) was synthesized by Baeyer more than 120 years ago, mixing pyrrole and acetone in the presence of an acid. 92 First proposed by Chelintzev et al., the correct structure was definitively proven by Rothemund in 1955, 93, 94 followed forty years later by the X-ray analysis. 95 This macrocycle could be obtained in gram scale and in very good yie...
