Procedure

A solution of potassium hydroxide (1.40 g, 25.0 mmol) in water (3 mL) was added to a solution of ethyl 4-bromo-1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-pyrrole-2-carboxylate (1.60 g, 4.97 mmol) in ethanol (5 mL) and the reaction mixture was refluxed overnight. The solvent was evaporated and the residue was washed with diethyl ether. The resultant filter cake was acidified with diluted HCl and extracted with ether. The organic layer was washed with water, brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 4-bromo-1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (1.0 g, 69%) as a solid.
