Significance
Reported is a two-step synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted pyrroles involving hydroamination of bromoacetylenes with sulfonamides to form (Z)-1-bromo-2-(sulfonylamino)-1-alkenes selectively, followed by an intramolecular Heck reaction-isomerization to afford pyrroles in good yields. Notably, a one-pot process for the two-step synthesis was also achieved. However, the scope and limitations of this process were not well investigated.
