title: Titanium-mediated alkylative coupling of N-acylpyrroles.
abstract: [reaction: see text]. Inter- and intramolecular titanium-mediated coupling reactions of N-acylpyrroles are reported for convenient functionalization of terminal olefins. Comparison with the Kulinkovich reaction of esters and other carboxylic acid derivatives is also included.
