1,4-Diketones were prepared by cerium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of styrene with molecular oxygen and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. This two-step sequence was performed as a one-pot procedure without isolation of the intermediate products. The first step is

Treatment of 1,4-diketones with liquid ammonia gives high yields of isolable 2-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole intermediates.These intermediates, which do not appear to have been observed previously in the Paal-Knorr synthesis with ammonia, have been fully characterized by i.r. and 1H and 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy; in most cases they decompose quantitatively into 1H-pyrroles on standing.The intermediate from hexane-2,4-dione may also be prepared using concentrated aqueous ammonia.
