Abstract

A novel series of N-Boc-substituted and fused pyrroles was prepared by cyclodehydration of readily accessible (E)-γ-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-α,β-enals and -enones. Functionalisation of the pyrrole ring was then explored with 2-borylated pyrroles in the Suzuki−Miyaura coupling. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2002)
