[reaction: see text] Reactions between alpha-substituted unsaturated carboxylic acids 20 and N-tosylpyrroles [14, 23] in the presence of trifluoroacetic anhydride result in smooth alpha-acylation of the pyrrole, followed by Nazarov cyclization to give 50-80% yields of cyclopenta[b]pyrroles. The presence of an alpha-substituent in the unsaturated acid appears to be mandatory.
[反应:见正文] 在三氟乙酸酐存在下,α-取代的不饱和羧酸20与N-甲苯磺酰基吡咯[14,23]之间的反应可使吡咯顺利进行α-酰化,随后经纳扎罗夫环化反应,得到产率为50 - 80%的环戊并[b]吡咯。不饱和酸中α-取代基的存在似乎是必不可少的。
