Pyrroles 1 having an open 2-position react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) in the presence of a source of active hydrogen, usually provided in the present cases by their own NH groups (if present) or by sufficient acetic acid, to give 1: 1 Michael-type adducts at the 2-position (dimethyl 2-pyrrolyl-2-butenedioates), usually as both the Z (3) and E (4) isomers. Analogy with thedata obtained permits assignment of stereochemistry to several other 1: 1 adducts previously reported, including 3g and 4g from 2, 3-dimethylpyrrole (lg) and 3h from 2, 3, 4-trimethylpyrrole (lh). On the basis of NMR and mass spectral data, the 2: 1 adduct of If and DMAD (a coproduct of 3f and 4f) is reassigned the structuredimethyl 2, 2-bis (3, 5-dimethyl-2-pyrrolyl) butanedioate (9). Formation of 3 and 4 is usually competitive with Diels-Alder reactions in which the pyrrole acts as a diene. The Diels-Alder reactiontends to be relatively favored in the absence of weak acids such as acetic acid and at higher temperatures than in refluxing ether. The initial 1: 1 Diels-Alder adducts (5) are unstable and were not isolated. They tend to react by one of fourpathways:(1) they revert to 3 and 4;(2) they react further with DMAD, giving 1: 2 adducts of type 6 (tetramethyl 3a, 7a-dihydroindole-2, 3, 3a, 4-tetracarboxylates);(3) at higher temperatures (63-160 C) they undergo retro-Diels-Alder cleavage, giving the corresponding dimethyl N-substituted pyrrole-3, 4-dicarboxylates (7);(4) they eliminate the bridging nitrogen to give dimethyl 4-substituted phthalates (14) or to give (via 5 and 7 and a further Diels-Alder reaction of 7 with DMAD) tetramethyl benzene-1, 2, 4, 5-tetracarboxylate (24) from lp and lq. The 1: 2 adducts of type 6 undergo further Diels-Alder reaction at their diene system with DMAD to give as coproducts trimethyl 5-substitutedbenzene-1, 2, 3-tricarboxylates (16) and trimethyl 1-substituted pyrrole-2, 3, 4-tricarboxylates (17, similar to 7). In a few instances the 2-vinylpyrroles 3 and/or 4 were observed to act as dienes in a Diels-Alder synthesis of indoles.
