Pyrrole is an extremely weak base for an amine, with a conjugate acid pK a of −3.8. The most thermodynamically stable pyrrolium cation (C 4 H 6 N +) is formed by protonation at the 2 position. Substitution of pyrrole with alkyl substituents provides a more basic molecule—for example, tetramethylpyrrole has a conjugate acid pK a of +3.7.
Pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid is an organic compound with the formula HNC 4 H 3 CO 2 H. It is one of two monocarboxylic acids of pyrrole. It is a white solid. It arises in nature by dehydrogenation of the amino acid proline. [1] It also arises by carboxylation of pyrrole. [2] The ethyl ester of this acid is readily prepared from pyrrole. [3]
Dissolving Knorr's pyrrole in concentrated sulfuric acid, and then pouring the resulting solution into water will hydrolyze the 4-ester group selectively. The 5-methyl group can be variously oxidized to chloromethyl, aldehyde, or carboxylic acid functionality by the use of stoichiometric sulfuryl chloride in glacial acetic acid. [7]
1-Pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid (systematic name 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid [2]) is a cyclic imino acid. Its conjugate base and anion is 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C). In solution, P5C is in spontaneous equilibrium with glutamate-5-semialdhyde (GSA).
A library of substituted pyrrole analogs can be quickly produced by using continuous flow chemistry (reaction times of around 8 min.). [10] The advantage of using this method, as opposed to the in-flask synthesis, is that this one does not require the work-up and purification of several intermediates, and could therefore lead to a higher ...
Polypyrrole Pyrrole can be polymerised electrochemically. [1] Polypyrrole (PPy) is an organic polymer obtained by oxidative polymerization of pyrrole. It is a solid with the formula H(C 4 H 2 NH) n H. It is an intrinsically conducting polymer, used in electronics, optical, biological and medical fields. [2] [3]
"Around the Horn" began in 2002 with Max Kellerman as its original host. Reali took over hosting duties in 2004 and has remained in the role ever since.
Acid–base extraction is a subclass of liquid–liquid extractions and involves the separation of chemical species from other acidic or basic compounds. [1] It is typically performed during the work-up step following a chemical synthesis to purify crude compounds [2] and results in the product being largely free of acidic or basic impurities.
