Participants

Reaction Steps

Ethyl 5-bromo-2-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (2.26 g) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (100 mL), sodium hydride (60% in oil, 1.16 g) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min. 15-Crown-5 (5.90 mL) was added and the mixture was further stirred at the same temperature for 15 min. 3-Pyridinesulfonyl chloride hydrochloride (3.13 g) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. Saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=19:1→7:3) to give the title compound as a yellow oil (yield 2.31 g, 64%).
