Procedure

To a suspension of sodium hydride (12.2 g. of 50% w/w NaH in mineral oil) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane is added 5-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-1-methylpyrrole-2-acetonitrile (62.6 g., 0.24 mole) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane over a period of ½ hr. at room temperature. After the addition is complete, the mixture is stirred for 1 hour and then 35 g. (0.25 mole) of methyl iodide is added. The reaction mixture is stirred for an additional 3 hours, concentrated under reduced pressure, diluted with water and extracted with chloroform. After drying, the chloroform is removed leaving a brown solid residue which is triturated with cold methanol to give yellow crystals of 5-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-α-methyl-1-methylpyrrole-2-acetonitrile, m.p. 145-148° C. Two recrystallizations from methanol raises the m.p. to 151.5-152.5° C.
