Procedure

A solution of the mixture of dimethyl 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrrole-1,1-dicarboxylate and methyl 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrrole-1-carboxylate (0.200 g) in methanol (5 ml) and water (3 ml) containing potassium hydroxide (0.5 g) was heated at reflux temperature for 1 hour. The solvent was removed in vacuo, water was added to the residue and the solution was made acidic with 10% hydrochloric acid solution. The product was extracted into ethyl acetate, the extract was dried and evaporated. The solid residue on crystallization from ethyl acetate-hexane gave 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrrole-1-carboxylic acid (0.124 g, 80%) m.p. 163°. A mixed m.p. with an authentic specimen (m.p. 170°) had m.p. 165°. The IR spectrum was identical to that of the authentic sample.
