description For the synthesis of 1-(2-(1<i>H</i>-pyrrole-2-carbonyl)phenyl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)urea, the final product, two different methods were used, in one or two steps, from (2-aminophenyl)(1<i>H</i>-pyrrol-2-yl)methanone. The one-step synthesis entailed a carbonylation reaction with 1/3 equivalent of triphosgene in the presence of two equivalents of trimethylamine, followed by the addition of 4-methoxyaniline to the in situ generated aryl isocyanate. The two-step synthesis required first the preparation of phenyl(2-(1<i>H</i>-pyrrole-2-carbonyl)phenyl)carbamate and then a substitution reaction by 4-methoxyaniline. The first method produced the final product in 72% yield, which was the best yield. The structure of the final product was confirmed by FTIR, UV-VIS, <sup>1</sup>H and <sup>13</sup>C NMR spectroscopy and high resolution mass spectrometry.
