Integration of oxidative arylation with sulfonyl migration: one-pot tandem synthesis of densely functionalized (NH)-pyrroles

Abstract

A one-pot synthesis of 2-aryl-3-alkyl/aryl-sulfonyl-(NH)-pyrroles from <italic>N</italic>-sulfonylpyrroles, developed for the first time, <italic>via</italic> palladium-catalyzed oxidative C-2 arylation followed by sulfonyl migration is described.
