Abstract

A general procedure for the Michael addition of pyrroles with electron-deficient olefins using silica gel supported reagent under microwave irradiation, has been developed. This new method is fast, efficient, environmentally benign and solvent-free. A catalytic amount of BiCl3 is employed for moderately bulk electron-deficient olefins.
