We herein demonstrate a new approach for the synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted pyrroles by [3+2] cycloaddition reaction of isocyanides to the activated double bond of various enamines and enaminones. This process paved the way for the synthesis a series of 2,4-disubstituted pyrroles, which are known to be intermediates in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, in good to excellent yields from simple and commercially available starting materials. The process is carried out efficiently using a strong base, tBuOK, at low temperatures (0 °C). The described method is simple, proceeds in one step, does not require additional catalysts and hence, has a wide scope.

Two series of 1-alkyl-2-aryl-4-(1-naphthoyl)pyrroles were synthesized and their affinities for the cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors were determined. In the 2-phenyl series (5) the N-alkyl group was varied from n-propyl to n-heptyl. A second series of 23 1-pentyl-2-aryl-4-(1-naphthoyl)-pyrroles (6) was also prepared. Several compounds in both series have CB1 receptor affinities in the 6-30 nM range. The high affinities of these pyrrole derivatives relative to JWH-030 (1, R = C5H11) support the hypothesis that these pyrroles interact with the CB1 receptor primarily by aromatic stacking.
