General description

Pyrrole-2-carboxaldehydesis a heterocyclic building blocks characterized by a pyrrole ring with a formylgroup attached at the 2-position used in the production of various biologicallyactive compounds. Highly functionalized pyrrole-2-carboxaldehydes have beenutilized as an intermediate in the creation of oligopyrrole macrocycles.

Application


  • Pyrimidine-based functional fluorescent organic nanoparticle probe for detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.: This study used pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde to develop a fluorescent nanoparticle probe based on pyrimidine for detecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa, enhancing diagnostic capabilities in microbiology (Kaur G et al., 2015).

A regiocontrolled synthesis of 3,4-disubstituted pyrrole-2-carboxaldehydes was completed in two steps from acyclic starting materials. A Barton-Zard pyrrole synthesis between N-methoxy-N-methyl-2-isocyanoacetamide and alpha-nitroalkenes or beta-nitroacetates provided N-methoxy-N-methyl pyrrole-2-carboxamides (pyrrole Weinreb amides), which were converted into the corresponding pyrrole-2-carboxaldehydes by treatment
