A thorough study of the synthesis of 2,4-diacylpyrroles by direct acylation of pyrrole and 2- and 3-acylpyrroles is reported.Among these, Friedel-Crafts acylation of 3-acylpyrroles is the most general and advantageous method because it utilises easily accessible starting materials.In addition it is always regiospecific and readily provides 2,4-diacylpyrroles containing identical or different acyl groups in very high yields (81-100percent) under mild conditions, Alternative procedures concern the synthesis of precursors of 2,4-diacylpyrroles containing one or two acyl groups masked by a 1,3-benzodithiolyl or 1,3-benzoxathiolyl group and subsequent hydrolysis with HgO-35percent aq.HBF4-Me2SO.Overall yields are always good (52-60percent).Indirect acylation constitutes a secure complement to direct acylation when it is necessary to operate in the presence of protected acyl groups.
