AS REPORTEDno primary record reached; this is what the reporting says

Chemical discussion indicates that the conjugate base of pyrrole lacks a reasonable amount of resonance stabilization due to the orientation of its lone pair orbital.

However, with a p_K_a of 23, I feel like it must have some resonance stabilisation.

However, the aromatic π-system contributes to the stability of σ-skeleton. Below you can find the MO of pyrrole and its N-deprotonated anion (click it to enlarge). You can see that in MO 17 the electron density is shifted fu
