Substituted pyrrole compounds, such as 3-ethyl-4-methyl-5-carbethoxy pyrrole, 2,4-dimethyl-3-acetyl pyrrole and 2-methyl-5-carboxy pyrrole-4-propionic acid diethyl ester, are alkylated in a single step by reaction with an aldehyde or ketone in the presence of both an acid condensing agent such as hydriodic acid and a compatible reducing agent such as metallic zinc or stannous chloride. Suitable carbonyl reactants include formaldehyde, paraldehyde, isobutyraldehyde, acetone, cyclohexanone and methyl-isobutyl ketone. This application is a continuation application of U.S. application Ser. No. 281,624 filed Aug. 18, 1972, now abandoned, which is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. application Ser. No. 832,001, filed June 10, 1969, now abandoned.
取代吡咯类化合物,如3-乙基-4-甲基-5-羰基乙酸酯吡咯、2,4-二甲基-3-乙酰基吡咯和2-甲基-5-羧基吡咯-4-丙酸二乙酯,可通过与醛或酮在存在酸性缩合剂(如碘化氢)和兼容的还原剂(如金属锌或氯化亚锡)的情况下进行一步反应进行烷基化。适合的羰基反应物包括甲醛、对甲醛、异丁醛、丙酮、环己酮和甲基异丁基酮。本申请是美国1972年8月18日申请的第281,624号专利申请的继续申请,该专利申请已被放弃,是美国1969年6月10日申请的第832,001号专利申请的续展部分申请。
