Oxidation of 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-formylpyrrole

Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

Pyrrole aldehydes interact with oxidizing agents to yield products which are oxidized to different degrees. Pyrrolecarboxylic acids are formed under the influence of silver oxides, an alkaline solution of permanganate, and 2–10% sulfuric acid [1–3]. With peroxidation of hydrogen, 5-unsubstituted pyrrole aldehydes convert to pyrrolone [4], and pyrrol-2-aldehyde converts to succinimide [5]. Chromacetate and chromium sulfuric acids oxidize pyrrole aldehydes to maleinimides [3].
