摘要
ortho-Lithiation of N-Boc-3-bromopyrroles (7b, 7d) with LDA in THF at 75 degrees C, followed by reactions with ethyl formate gave exclusive C2-formylpyrroles (9b, 9c, 9d, 9e) in good yields. This methodology was applied to the synthesis of 3-(2-formyl-4-methyl-1-H-pyrrol-3-yl)propanoic acid (4a), a penultimate precursor to SU5402. The process for making 4a has also been optimized which involves a nonchromatography eight-step synthesis with an overall 18% yield. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
