The conversion of the amino group of chiral amines, amino alcohols, amino acids and their esters into chiral 2-substituted pyrrole derivatives with various halogeno enones is described. The conversion works in good yield and without racemization. The synthesis of 2-phenylpyrrole derivatives was possible with amino alcohols but not with amino acids or their esters.
