Reaktionsschritte

To DMF (1.3 mL, 17 mmol) cooled to 5-10° C. was added phosphorous oxychloride (1.5 mL) dropwise and the mixture was diluted with 1,2-dichloroethane (5 mL). The flask was then cooled to −10° C. and ethyl pyrrole-2-carboxylate (2.00 g, 14.4 mmol) in 1,2-dichloroethane (5 mL) was added dropwise over 5 min. The mixture was heated to reflux for 15 min, cooled to RT and ethyl acetate (15 mL), water (20 mL), and satd aq sodium bicarbonate (70 mL) were added. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether (3×20 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated sodium carbonate (50 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and the solvents were removed in vacuo. The resulting solid was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (300 g), eluting with 30% ethyl acetate in hexane to yield 1.0 g (42%) of the title compound as a pale yellow crystalline solid. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 9.89 (br s, 1H), 9.67 (s, 1H), 6.95 (d, 1H, J=4.1 Hz), 6.94 (d, 1H, J=4.1 Hz), 4.38 (q, 2H, J=7.1 Hz), 1.39 (t, 3H, J=7.1).
