Before revision: Chemical oxidation of pyrrole: n C4H2NH + 2n FeCl3 → (C4H2NH)n + 2n FeCl2 + 2n HCl The process is thought to occur via the formation of the pi-radical cation C4H4NH+.
After revision: Chemical oxidation of pyrrole: n C4H4NH + 2n FeCl3 → (C4H2NH)n + 2n FeCl2 + 2n HCl The process is thought to occur via the formation of the pi-radical cation C4H4NH+.
