After the precipitates deposited were filtered off, 5.35 g (0.048 mole) of potassium tert-butoxide were added to the filtrate by portions and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was poured into about 150 ml of a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate (once with 100 ml and twice with 50 ml). The combined extracts were washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off. The residue was purified by column chromatography through silica gel using a 3:97 mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane as an eluent to give 1.53 g of ethyl 1-(2-butenyl)-5-ethyl-4-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate (cis/trans=76/24) as an orange oil.
