Reaction Steps

Methyl 5,6-dihydro-5-oxo-4H-thieno[2,3-b]pyrrole-2-carboxylate (32 mg, 0.2 mmol) was dissolved in a solution of 1% piperidine in 2-propanol (1 ml). Pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde (37 mg, 0.39 mmol) was added in one portion and the mixture heated at 75° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was poured into an ice/water mixture (6 ml) and the precipitated solid was collected by filtration and washed with water to give 10 mg of methyl (Z)-5,6-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene]-4H-thieno[2,3-b]pyrrole-2-carboxylate as a yellow solid. MS(ES): m/e 275 [M+H].
