Description2-acetyl pyrrole is a colorless or yellow liquid. It occurs naturally in cereals and cereal product and has an odor reminiscent of walnut, licorice, baked bread, baked hazelnut, and fish. It is used as a food additive, such as in cocoa, rum, brandy, caramel.

DescriptionMethyl 2-pyrrolyl ketone is like bread, walnut, licorice. May be prepared from pyrryl magnesium iodide and acetyl chloride; a volatile flavor component in roasted filberts.

OccurrenceReported found in essential oils of tobacco leaves, apple, asparagus, onion, baked and fried potato, roasted almonds, wheat bread, cooked chicken, cooked beef and pork, beer, malt whiskey, cocoa, coffee, tea, roasted filberts, and peanuts, peanut butter, potato chips, soybean, coconut, mushrooms, almond, mango, licorice, sweet corn, malt, wort, dried bonito, Bourbon vanilla, chicory root, okra, crab, scallop and clam.

Uses2-Acetylpyrrole has been used in the synthesis of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline.

Useshepatoprotectant, organoleptic

General Description2-Acetylpyrrole undergoes alkylation reaction with alkyl iodide in benzene/solid KOH system in the presence of 18-crown-6 to yield the corresponding 1-alkyl derivative.
