The course of the reaction is followed by t.l.c. analysis using chloroform:acetone (90:10). When the reaction appears to be complete (about 30 minutes after the addition of the methanesulfonyl chloride is terminated) there is added slowly 10 ml of water. The organic phase is separated, washed with water (3×30 ml), dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure. Crystallization of the residue from dichloromethane affords 4.75 g (77.7%) of methyl N-(2-mesyloxyethyl)-3-carbomethoxypyrrole-2-acetate (V,R=H), m.p. 99°-101° C.
