Highly Efficient Chemoselective Synthesis of Polysubstituted Pyrroles via Isocyanide-Based Multicomponent Domino Reaction

Abstract

A multicomponent domino reaction for the chemoselective, catalyst-free synthesis of polysubstituted pyrroles from readily available isocyanides, primary or secondary amines, and gem-diactivated olefins has been developed. Structurally diverse pyrroles were obtained in moderate to good yields under mild conditions.
