Abstract
Abstract 2-Ethanolamine and (2R)-2-aminopropanol were converted into their N-pyrrole derivatives, 14 and 15, by reaction with 2, 5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran. The acetoxyacetyl derivatives of 14 and 15 were prepared and submitted to BBr 3-promoted rearrangement. Acetylation of the resulting (2-acetoxyacetyl) pyrrol-1-yl-2-ethanol and 2-propanol furnished the corresponding acetates.
