Abstract

Abstract Electrochemically generated tetraethylammonium peroxydicarbonate (TEAPC) and tetraethylammonium carbonate (TEAC) react under very mild conditions with pyrroles affording, after addition of a suitable alkylating agent, the corresponding N-alkylated pyrroles in high yields. C-Alkylated pyrroles have not been isolated in any case reported.
