Procedure
Ethyl 5-tetradecylpyrrole-2-carboxylate obtained in Example 1 (0.50 g, 1.5 mmol) was dissolved in 20 ml of ethanol followed by adding 3 ml (3 mmol) of aqueous 1N sodium hydroxide solution thereto. The resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 6 hours. After cooling the mixture, precipitates were filtered, washed well with ether, suspended in diluted hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ether. The extract was further washed with an aqueous saturated solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous megnesium sulfate. A removal of the solvent under reduced pressure afforded 0.34 g (74% yield) of 5-tetradecylpyrrole-2-carboxylic acid, m.p. 68°-69° C.
