Nucleophilic reactions in the pyrrole series: Displacement of halogen as a tool to functionalize the pyrrole nucleus

Article abstract of DOI:10.1055/s-1997-1326

Nucleophilic substitutions on halopyrroles by charged and neutral carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur nucleophiles are reported. Such reactions represent a valuable and versatile instrument to prepare a wide variety of functionalized pyrroles and to obtain building blocks for the synthesis of polycyclic systems.
