Abstract: The instant invention concerns processes for the production of pyrrole-2-carbonitriles such as 1-methylpyrrole-2-carbonitrile. Such processes preferably comprise the steps of reacting a pyrrole with chlorosulfonyl isocyanate in the presence of a solvent and contacting the resulting product with a molar excess of an amide such as N,N-dimethylformamide. The product of this contacting step is then contacted with a molar excess of an organic base to produce a precipitate and a solution phase. The precipitate is then separated from the solution phase and the corresponding pyrrole-2-carbonitrile is isolated from the resulting solution phase.

Abstract: The present invention provides processes for the preparation of substituted naphthylindole derivatives that can be used as inhibitors of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1). In certain embodiments of the invention, the processes involve reactions that include one or more of an Oppenauer oxidation, a Fischer indole synthesis, a methyl ether cleavage, or coupling a substituted methyltetrazole with a substituted naphthol.
