Thermal reactions of 1-n-butylpyrrole were investigated in the 460 to 570/sup 0/ range by a flow method and in the 360 to 400/sup 0/ range by a static method. 1-n-Butylpyrrole isomerized to 2-n-butylpyrrole which then isomerized by a reversible reaction to 3-n-butylpyrrole. The Arrhenius equation for the isomerization of 1-n-butylpyrrole is given. The 2- and 3-n-butylpyrroles decompose to form pyrrole, 2- and 3-methylpyrroles, 2- and 3-ethylpyrroles, 2- and 3-vinylpyrroles, pyridines, and hydrocarbons.
