反応手順

A mixture of 5-formyl-4-(2-ethoxycarbonylethyl)-3-methyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (281 mg), 4-methyl-2-oxindole (147 mg) and piperidine (2 drops) in ethanol (2 mL) was stirred at 90° C. for 2 hours. Potassium hydroxide (213 mg) was added, the temperature was increased to 95° C. and held there for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled and concentrated. The residue was dissolved into water and acidified with 2 N hydrochloric acid to pH 2. The precipitate was filtered, washed with water and dried in a vacuum oven overnight to give 337 mg (95%) of 4-(2-carboxyethyl)-3-methyl-5-(4-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroindol-3-ylidenemethyl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid.
