Procedure

To a solution of 0.3 g (1 m mole) of 4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid in 5 ml ether/5 ml THF at -78° was added as a gas 0.3 g of trifluoromethanesulfenyl chloride. After 15 minutes, TLC showed no evidence of reaction, so a large excess of trifluoromethanesulfenyl chloride was added and the mixture was allowed to warm slowly to room temperature overnight, with a dry ice condenser attached for the first few hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by chromatography on 100 g Silic AR CC-7 to give after recrystallization from hexane 0.15 g (40%) of 4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(trifluoromethylthio)pyrrole, identical to material obtained by Method A.
