Metalation of 1-phenylpyrrole with about three moles of n-butyllithium to one of thepyrrole did not yield any dicar boxy lie acid subsequent to carbonation. Instead there was obtained, in addition to some monocarboxylic acid, a bright yellow compound which contained a carbonyl group and which was indicated by analysis and molecular weight determination to be 5-ketopyrrolo [l, 2-a] indole (III). This compound would arise from dimetalation of 1-phenylpyrrole in the 2-and2'-positions followed by intramolecular ketone formation with carbon dioxide. Ketones are commonly formed as by-products from the action of re-active organometallic compounds on carbon dioxide, but in this case the cyclic ketone is the only product isolated from dimetalation. This is undoubtedly due to the favorable steric arrangement of functional groups after one molecule of carbon dioxide has reacted. A similar situation was encountered in the dimetala-tion of 1-phenylindóle (1), although here it was possible also to isolate some of the dicarboxylic acid.
