Abstract

A new multicomponent reaction (multiple-anion-capture reaction) of 1,3-dianions with nitriles and oxalic acid-bis(imidoyl)chlorides is reported. This process allows for an efficient and regioselective synthesis of a variety of radialene-shaped pyrroles which constitute structurally new and interesting heterocyclic systems. The cyclization products can be considered as aza-analogues of the pharmacologically relevant substance class of 3-acetyltetramic acids. A rationalization of the experimental results is given based on quantum chemical computations.
