Abstract

A simple and efficient synthesis of some polyfunctionalized pyrrole derivatives by a triphenylphosphine-promoted condensation reaction between dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates, arylglyoxals, and ammonium acetate is described. This present  method carries several advantages, such as good yields, a simple procedure, non-hazardous reaction conditions and starting from easily accessible substrates
