Procedure

To pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (1.11 g., 0.010 mol) in 5 ml. DMF at 0° was added N-(ethyl)diisopropylamine (1.806 ml., 0.0105 mol) followed by methyl iodide (0.654 ml., 0.0105 mol). The mixture was stirred 18 hours at room temperature, diluted with 10 ml. ethyl acetate and 10 ml. H2O, the pH adjusted to 8.5, and the organic layer separated, washed 1×10 ml. H2O, dried over Na2SO4, and stripped with CHCl3 chase to yield title product as a gummy solid containing 10% DMF, 0.93 g.; 1H-nmr (CDCl3) delta (narrow product peaks only): 3.80 (s, 3H), 6.15 (m, 1H), 6.83 (m, 2H).
