The reaction mixture was poured into water, and the mixture was adjusted to pH 1 with 6N-hydrochloric acid. The mixture was extracted with a mixture of ethyl acetate and tetrahydrofuran. The extract layer was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from ethanol to give methyl 3-[2-((E)-2-carboxyethenyl)pyrrol-1-yl)benzoate.
