Participants

Reaction Steps

The starting material may be prepared as follows. A solution of 2-formylpyrrole (1.0 g.) and a 50% w/w dispersion of sodium hydride in oil (0.72 g.) in DMF (20 ml.) was treated with 3-chloropropanol (1.03 g.) and the mixture heated at 90° for 18 hours and then evaporated to dryness. The residue was partitioned between water and ether, and the ether phase was dried and evaporated to dryness to give 1-(3-hydroxypropyl)-2-formylpyrrole (1.48 g.) which was used without further purification.
