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).
