Procedure
Sodium hydride (0.63 g, 0.013 mol) was washed with petrol 60°-80° and suspended in DMF (30 ml) under nitrogen. To this methyl (2-styrylpyrrol-1-yl)acetate (1.6 g, 0.0066 mol) and methyl formate (8.2 ml, 0.13 mol) in DMF (10 ml) was added dropwise at room temperature. After 4 hours it was poured into 200 ml of saturated sodium bicarbonate, extracted with diethyl ether (2×100 ml), then the aqueous layer was neutralised with concentrated hydrochloric acid and extracted again with diethyl ether (2×100 ml). This was washed with brine, dried and evaporated to give methyl 3-hydroxy-2-[(E)-2-styrylpyrrol-1-yl]acrylate (2.Og) as an orange-yellow oil. This was used in the following reaction without further purification.
