- Synthesis and Chemistry of Azolenines. Part 16. Preparation of both 3H- and 2H-Pyrroles from 2,2-Disubstituted 1,4-Diketones via the Paal-Knorr Reaction, and Isolation of Intermediate 2-Hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrroles
-
Treatment of 2,2-disubstituted 1,4-diketones (1) with liquid ammonia gives high yields of isolable isomeric 2-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrroles (10) and (11), many of which may be dehydrated to 3H-pyrroles (2) together, in certain cases, with isomeric methylene-pyrrolines (14) and (15).When heated in acetic acid with ammonium acetate, the diketones (1) yield 2H-pyrroles (18), sometimes in admixture with 3H-pyrroles (2) from which they are formed by rearrangement.The diketones (1), including some novel examples, are prepared from nitro-ketones (6) by the Nef reaction, as well as other methods.

- Nitrones and Oxaziridines. XXXIX Conversion of 1-Pyrroline 1-Oxides into 2H-Pyrroles through the Hetero-Cope Rearrangement
-
The 1-pyrroline 1-oxides (1) undergo a hetero-Cope rearrangement to give variously the 2H-pyrroles (2) and/or the 3-benzoyloxy-1-pyrrolines (3).The esters (3) can be hydrolysed to the corresponding alcohols (4).
