Procedure

Lit. J. Org. Chem., 44:975 (1979). To a stirred solution of 5.0 g (45.0 mmol) pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid and 31.3 ml (225 mmol) triethylamine in 100 ml DMF was added dropwise 26 ml (225 mmol) benzyl bromide and stirring continued for 72 h at room temperature. The reaction mixture was then concentrated in vacuo and the residue resuspended in dichloromethane and washed twice with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and twice with water, and the aqueous phases back-extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography (25% EtOAc in hexane) afforded 8.23 g (90%) of the title compound as a yellow oil. MS m/e (%): 201 (M+, 33), 94 ([M−OBn]+, 22), 91 (Bn+, 100).
