Abstract

The regiospecific ring expansion of 2H-azetines into halogenated pyrroles is disclosed. Simple reaction sequences have been developed to conceptualize this 4-to-5 skeletal editing strategy, taking advantage of the inherent reactivity of double bonds present in the initial four-membered ring systems. Such reaction design allows for the preparation of highly substi-tuted halogenated pyrrole derivatives.
