title: N-Confused Calix
abstract: Next to the "normal" calix[4]pyrrole 1, the N-confused calix[4]pyrrole 2 is formed in substantial amounts (up to 22 % yield) as side product in the acid-catalyzed condensation reaction of ketones and pyrrole. In some cases, doubly N-confused calix[4]pyrroles are also formed.
