Abstract

Protonation of the reactive intermediates generated in the raction between dalkyl acetylenedicarboxylates and triphenylphosphine by isonitrosoacetophenone leads to vinyltriphenylphosphonium salts, which undergo intramolecular Wittig reaction to produce dalkyl 4-phenyl-N-hydroxypyrrole-2,3-dicarboxylates in moderate yields.
