A mixture of 1-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)-1,4-pentanedione (Example 1, Step 2) (400 mg, 1.57 mmol), p-amino-acetophenone (234 mg, 1.73 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (30 mg) in toluene (40 ml) was heated to reflux for 5 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled, filtered and concentrated. The crude reddish solid (1.2 g) was purified by chromatography (silica gel, hexane/ethyl acetate, 6/4) to give 1-[4-[2-methyl-5-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]phenyl]ethanone (336 mg, 61%) as a white solid: mp 179-80° C. Anal Calc'd. for C20H19NSO3 ·0.1 H2O: C, 64.67; H, 5.70; N, 3.77; S, 8.63. Found: C, 64.68; H, 5.52; N, 3.82; S, 8.08.
