Synthesis of 2H-pyrroles via the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of nitrile ylides with acrylamides

3,4-Dihydro-2H-pyrrole derivatives were synthesized by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of nitrile ylides with acrylamides. Acrylamide substitution patterns and benzimidoyl chloride equilibration were investigated.
