Abstract

Pyrroles represent one of the most important classes of five-membered heterocycle compounds that constitute the core motif of many natural products.(1) Furthermore, they are useful building blocks in the synthesis of compounds with interesting biological and pharmaceutical activities(2) and are widely used in the field of materials chemistry.(3) As a result, many new synthetic methods have been developed for the construction of pyrroles and their ...
