Abstract

The conversion of primary amines to pyrroles has previously been achieved by reaction with 2, 5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran (1) under refluxing acetic acid.'The reaction is useful for the synthesis of a number of N-substituted pyrroles. It is obviously not applicable to compounds that are acid or heat sensitive.
