Abstract

An efficient and operationally simple three-component coupling synthesis of varieties of N-aryl substituted pyrroles is described in the presence of sustainable and environmentally benign metal catalyst, FeCl3. This method provides a straightforward approach for the synthesis of N-aryl substituted pyrroles in good yields from easily accessible starting materials such as nitroalkenes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, and primary aromatic amines. The reaction proceeds through a catalytic sequence of Fe(III)-catalyzed amination/Michael/cycloisomerization reactions. Supplemental materials are available for this article.
