Metallation of N-vinylpyrrole under presumed kinetic conditions, using n-butyllithium in THF/hexane mixtures, n-butyllithium/N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethanediamine in hexane, or n-butyllithium/potassium tert-butoxide (1:1 molar ratio) in THF/hexane mixtures g

N-Ethynylpyrrole can be obtained in good overall yields by reacting pyrrole with potassium tert-butoxide and trichloroethene in tetrahydrofuran, and subsequently dechlorinating the adduct with methyllithium or n-butyllithium in diethyl ether.

In the present work two diacetylene derivatives of pyrrole (compounds 1 and 2), which are predicted by semiempirical AMI calculations to have very different properties, are synthesized; the polymerizability of these diacetylenes in the solid state is determined; and the results are compared to the computer predictions. Diacetylene 1 is novel in that the monomer is a liquid at room temperature; this may allow for the possibility of polymerization in the liquid state as well as the solid state. Thin poly(diacetylene) films are obtained from compound 1 by growing films of the monomer using vapor deposition and polymerizing with UV light; these films are then characterized. Interestingly, while the poly(diacetylene) from 1 does not possess good nonlinear optical properties, the monomer exhibits very good third-order nonlinear optical effects (e.g., phase conjugation) in solution. Dilute acetone solutions of the monomer 1 give intensity-dependent refractive indices (η2) on the order of 10-6 esu (x(3) values on the order of 10-7 esu); these are 106 times better than for CS2.
