Abstract

An N-vinyl group is one of the efficient and atom-economic groups for the protection of the NH-function in azoles [1]. Its removal is carried out by different methods: oxidation (KMnO4 [2, 3] or ozonolysis [4, 5]), acid hydrolysis [6-8], or acetomercuration and subsequent treatment with NaBH4 [6-13]. The synthetic use of pyrrole series compounds is limited by the comparatively small set of available NH-pyrroles since their syntheses are generally ...
