Significance

Lee and co-workers report a tandem palladium-catalyzed intramolecular oxidative olefin amination of the zinc bromide complex of α-vinylated β-amino esters to afford various 2,3,4-trisubstituted pyrroles in good yields.

Comment

The synthetic utility of this efficient and atom-economical procedure is shown by the synthesis of pyrrolophenanthrenes and pyranopyrrolones through selective palladium- and copper-catalyzed C–C and C–O bond-forming reactions.
