A mixture of 1-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)-1,4-pentanedione (Example 1, Step 2) (335 mg, 1.32 mmol), p-toluidine (156 mg, 1.45 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (25 mg) in toluene (100 ml) was heated to reflux for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled, filtered and concentrated. The crude solid (560 mg) was purified by chromatography (silica gel, hexane/ethyl acetate, 7/3) to give 2-methyl-1-(4-methylphenyl)-5-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1H-pyrrole (390 mg, 91%) as a white solid: mp (DSC) 144° C. Anal Calc'd. for C19H19NSO2 : C, 70.13; H, 5.88; N, 4.30; S, 9.85. Found: C, 69.99; H, 6.23; N, 4.18; S, 9.74.
