Arylation of N-acyl-pyrroles and -indoles with arenes and palladium acetate
Abstract
Treatment of 1-benzoylpyrroles with palladium acetate in acetic acid containing benzene gave mixtures of 1-benzoyl-2-phenylpyrroles; similar treatment of 1-acetylindoles gave the corresponding 1-acetyl-2-phenylindoles.
