Synthesis of new cycloalkenyliden-pyrroles by domino reaction

Easily accessible cycloalkenyl-1-diazenes and β-dicarbonyl compounds are converted in one-pot into previously unknown functionalized fused cycloalkenyliden-pyrroles of different sizes. The domino reaction proceeds through a base-catalyzed conjugate addition/cyclization/elimination sequence.
