During our efforts, MaGee and Walters reported one example of pyrrole-[4 + 3] cycloaddition employing nitrogen-stabilized oxyallyl cations derived from, α-bromo-α-amido ketones, although the yield was low [see ref 3a].

59. Acidic conditions used to remove the Boc group led to pyrrole li via a retro-Mannich fragmentation followed by re-aromatization of the iminium intermediate i. This in essence represents an equivalent of the Type III cycloadduct or a-arylation of a methyl ketone. For a recent elegant account related to this fragmentation, see: Cramer, N.; Juretschke, J.; Laschat, S.; Baro, A.; Frey, W. Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2004, 1397. Figure presented.
