| Abstract: | C‐Phosphorylation of 2,5‐dimethylpyrroles with phosphorus (III) halides has been studied. Synthetic methods have been elaborated that provide an access to 3‐phosphorylated 2,5‐dimethylpyrroles, including pyrrole‐substituted halogeno and dihalogeno phosphines; on this basis, a variety of trivalent and pentavalent phosphorus derivatives has been obtained. Ortho‐diphosphorylated 2,5‐dimethyl‐N‐arylpyrrole derivatives have been synthesized for the first time. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 10:223–230, 1999 |
