Participants

Reaction Steps

Using methyl 5-bromo-4-isopropyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (4.8 g), and a 1.5 mol/L solution (50 mL) of diisobutylaluminum hydride in toluene, tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate (218 mg), N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (1.6 g) and molecular sieves 4A powder (2.5 g), a procedure as in Reference Example 6 was performed to give crude 5-bromo-4-isopropyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carbaldehyde (3.83 g) as an oil. Furthermore, using 40% methylamine methanol solution (877 mg), sodium borohydride (474 mg) and crude 5-bromo-4-isopropyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carbaldehyde (3.83 g), a procedure as in Reference Example 66 was performed to give the title compound as a colorless oil (yield 502 mg, 11%).
