Upstream Synthesis Route
  • To synthesize Methyl 4-iodo-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate, one could follow this synthetic route:
    
    1. Start with the commercially available N-H pyrrole and protect the NH group using an appropriate protecting group such as a Boc group to yield N-Boc-pyrrole.
    
    2. Perform a lithiation reaction on N-Boc-pyrrole using n-BuLi (n-butyl lithium) to form the 2-lithiated N-Boc-pyrrole intermediate.
    
    3. Add an electrophilic methyl ester source such as methyl chloroformate to the formed lithiated intermediate to obtain N-Boc-methyl pyrrole-2-carboxylate.
    
    4. Remove the Boc protecting group using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) to get Methyl pyrrole-2-carboxylate.
    
    5. Perform a halogenation reaction using N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) in the presence of a suitable catalyst like copper(I) iodide (CuI) to introduce the iodine at the 4-position, yielding Methyl 4-iodo-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate.
    
    Each reaction would require purification, monitoring by techniques such as TLC, HPLC, and NMR spectroscopy, and careful control of reaction conditions to ensure a satisfactory yield and purity of the target molecule.
