This reaction mixture was refluxed overnight then filtered. The filtrate was collected and concentrated to give diethyl 1-(2-bromoethyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylate (0.8 g, 76%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ7.42 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 1 H), 7.33 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 1 H), 4.60 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 2 H), 4.22 (q, J=7.2 Hz, 4 H), 3.62 (t, J=6.4 Hz, 2 H), 1.28 (m, 6 H).
