In situ N-alkylation of azlactones (1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-ones) with reactive alkylating agents has been successfully accomplished. The resulting mesoionic 1,3-oxazolium 5-oxides (munchnones) are further transformed into N-alkylated pyrroles via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with a dipolarophile (dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate) in the presence of 2,6-di-tert-butylpyridine.
