Abstract
Vinylindoles and vinylpyrroles were prepared from their corresponding aldehydes or ketones using the Peterson olefination, or by use of the Nysted reagent, a commercially available gem-dimetallic compound. The two methods provide efficient and convenient access to these useful heterocyclic 1,3-diene systems.
