Reaktionsschritte

To a solution (20 ml) of 2.78 g (20 mmol) of ethyl pyrrole-3-carboxylate in benzene was added tridecanoyl chloride prepared from 4.28 g (20 mml) of tridecanoic acid in a conventional manner, followed by further dropwise addition of 3.5 ml (30 mmol) of stannic chloride. After the addition, the mixture was stirred for 15 hours at room temperature, treated with diluted hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After removing the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by subjecting it to silica gel column chromatography (eluent: ethyl acetate/hexane=1/7) to obtain 4.85 g (72% yield) of ethyl 5-tridecanoylpyrrole-3-carboxylate.
