Alkylation of 1 -substituted 1 H-pyrrol-3(2H)-ones 1 in the presence of base generally gives a mixture of O-alkylated 3, C, O-dialkylated 4 and C, C-dialkylated 5 products. The proportion of C-alkylation is increased by the use of a soft alkylating agent (e.g. iodomethane) and a solvent of low polarity (e.g. THF), whereas O-alkylation is favoured by hard alkylating agents (e.g. methyl toluene-psulphonate)
