Procedure

6.4 grams (0.02 mole) of ethyl 5-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-1,4-dimethylpyrrole-2-acetate is dissolved in 100 ml. of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and added to a slurry of 0.48 g. (0.02 mole) of sodium hydride in approximately 30 ml. of DMSO. The mixture is stirred for 30 minutes before 2.84 g. (0.02 mole) of methyl iodide is added. Stirring is continued for 15 minutes. The reaction mixture is then poured into water, and the precipitate filtered off and recrystallized from 2-propanol to yield ethyl 5-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-1,4,α-trimethylpyrrole-2-acetate, m.p. 88-90° C.
