1,2,3,5-Tetrasubstituted and 1,2,3,4,5-pentasubstituted pyrroles may be synthesized through three-component reaction of 1,3-diketones, aldehydes, and amines induced by low-valent titanium reagent. High regioselectivity was achieved. Compared with the classical synthetic method, this new method has the advantages of short reaction time (15 min), high yields, convenient manipulation, and high regioselectivity.
