title: Design of a versatile multicomponent reaction leading to 2-amino-5-ketoaryl pyrroles.
abstract: The design of an unprecedented multicomponent reaction to and synthesis of 2-amino-5-ketoaryl pyrroles are described. The compounds (14 examples) can be synthesized by reacting aminoacetophenone sulfonamides, (hetero)aromatic aldehydes, and malonodinitrile or cyanoacetic acid derivatives in one-pot manner. Pharmacophore features and potential applications of this new scaffold are discussed.
