A.H. Jackson, in R.A. Jones, "Pyrroles: Part One," says: "Thus, bromination
of 1-benzylpyrrole at 0 C, under conditions in which the hydrogen bromide
produced by the reaction is continuously removed, afforded
1-benzyl-3-bromopyrrole as the main component (55%), with none of the
2-bromo derivative" [Anderson, H.J.; Griffiths, S.J. Can. J. Chem. 1967, 45,
2227].
