Reaction Steps

A solution of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde (19.6 g) and 2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)ethanamine (11 g, described in Example 7) in acetic acid (250 ml) is stirred at room temperature for 48 hr and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue is partitioned between chloroform and 10% sodium carbonate and the organic phase is separated, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to give 18 g of the title compound, nmr(CDCl3) δ (2.40(s), 3.35(m), 3.84(s), 3.92(m), 5.03(s), 5.65(m), 6.12(t), 6.61(m) and 6.70(s).
