An ipso-oxidation of allyl ether/decarboxylative aromatization cascade strategy is reported, resulting in the formation of N-alkyl pyrroles via oxocarbenium activation. This transformation, which involves formation of C-N bond and cleavage of C-O bond, provides a novel protocol that furnishes N-alkyl pyrroles in 29%~71% yields with good functional group tolerance.
