title: Iron-catalyzed aerobic C-H functionalization of pyrrolones.
abstract: The aerobic oxidation of pyrrolones catalyzed by Fe(OTf)3 to form reactive N-acyliminium ion intermediates that undergo nucleophilic additions with alcohols to give the corresponding products in moderate to good yields is described.
