Abstract

Abstract : An efficient and regioselective cobalt-catalyzed synthesis of multi-substituted pyrroles is reported by the use of readily available enamides and alkynes. Abstract : An efficient and regioselective cobalt-catalyzed synthesis of multi-substituted pyrroles is reported by the use of readily available enamides and alkynes. The success of the process relies on the employment of a catalytic amount of Cp*Co(CO)I2 together with CuO as the oxidant.
