The route to 3-bromothiophene utilises a variation of the halogen dance technology (17). Preferably, 2,5-dibromothiophene [3141-27-3] is added to a solution of sodamide in thiophene containing the catalyst tris(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl)amine (l DA-1) (33) at temperatures marginally below reflux. On completion, quenching exothermically Hberates ammonia gas the organic phase is separated, washed, and distilled, and foremnning thiophene is recycled. Material of 97—98% purity is isolated. 

The light-induced rearrangement of 2-phenyl- to 3-phenyl-thiophene may occur by a similar mechanism an equilibrium between the bicyclic intermediate (26) and the cyclopro-penylthioaldehyde (27) has been suggested (Scheme 2). The formation of IV-substituted pyrroles on irradiation of either furans or thiophenes in the presence of a primary amine supports this suggestion (Scheme 3). Irradiation of 2-phenylselenophene yields, in addition to 3-phenylselenophene, the enyne PhC=C—CH=CH2 and selenium. Photolysis of 2-phenyltellurophene furnishes solely the enyne and tellurium (76JOM(108)183). 

The classical structures of pyrrole, furan and thiophene (31) suggest that these compounds might show chemical reactions similar to those of amines, ethers and thioethers (32) respectively. On this basis, the initial attack of the electrophile would be expected to take place at the heteroatom and lead to products such as quaternary ammonium and oxonium salts, sulfoxides and sulfones. Products of this type from the heteroaromatic compounds under consideration are relatively rare. 

An important extension of these reactions is the Mannich reaction, in which aminomethyl-ation is achieved by the combination of formaldehyde, a secondary amine and acetic acid (Scheme 24). The intermediate immonium ion generated from formaldehyde, dimethyl-amine and acetic acid is not sufficiently reactive to aminomethylate furan, but it will form substitution products with alkylfurans. The Mannich reaction appears to be still more limited in its application to thiophene chemistry, although 2-aminomethylthiophene has been prepared by reaction of thiophene with formaldehyde and ammonium chloride. The use of A,iV-dimethyf (methylene) ammonium chloride (Me2N=CH2 CF) has been recommended for the iV,iV-dimethylaminomethylation of thiophenes (83S73). 

The cyclic thioketone, 3-oxotctrahydrothiophene (11), gives a mixture of enamines (12,13) when caused to react with a secondary amine such as piperidine or pyrrolidine (31). The enamine mixture can be reduced to the 3-aminotetrahydrothiophene using formic acid or oxidized to the 3-amino-thiophene using diisopentylsulfide. 

Shortly thereafter, Knorr reported that combining ammonia or primary amines with 1,4-dicarbonyls furnished substituted pyrroles (see Section 2.2), and Paal produced thiophenes by addition of hydrogen sulfide with 1,4-dicarbonyls. ... 

Separately, Paal and Knorr described the initial examples of condensation reactions between 1,4-diketones and primary amines, which became known as the Paal-Knorr pyrrole synthesis. Paal also developed a furan synthesis in related studies. The central theme of these reactions involves cyclizations of 1,4-diketones, either in the presence of a primary amine (Paal-Knorr pyrrole synthesis), in the presence of a sulfur(II) source (Paal thiophene synthesis), or by dehydration of the diketone itself (Paal furan synthesis). 

The Beckmann rearrangement of oximes of the thiophene series has been applied (besides the preparation of 2-acetamidothiophene ) to thiophenocycloalkenones (192) which gave the cyclic amide (193) hydrolyzable to the amine (194). The Beckmann rearrangement was... 

Two different sets of experimental conditions have been used. Buu-Hoi et al. and Hansen have employed the method introduced by Papa et using Raney nickel alloy directly for the desulfurization in an alkaline medium. Under these conditions most functional groups are removed and this method is most convenient for the preparation of aliphatic acids. The other method uses Raney nickel catalysts of different reactivity in various solvents such as aqueous ammonia, alcohol, ether, or acetone. The solvent and activity of the catalyst can have an appreciable influence on yields and types of compounds formed, but have not yet been investigated in detail. In acetic anhydride, for instance, desulfurization of thiophenes does not occur and these reaction conditions have been employed for reductive acetylation of nitrothiophenes. Even under the mildest conditions, all double bonds are hydrogenated and all halogens removed. Nitro and oxime groups are reduced to amines. 

The tautomerism of 2- and 3-aminothiophenes was mentioned by Hartough in his review of thiophenes/ but the first definite evidence became available in 1961 when Hoffman and Gronowitz showed conclusively by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy that these compounds both exist in the amino form. In agreement with this finding, 3-aminothiophene generally behaves as an aromatic amine. ... 

In contrast to 6-azidobenzo[/)]thiophene, which yields only benzo[i]thiophen-6-amine (9 %) and JVh,Ar(1-diethylbenzo[/)]thiopheiie-6,7-diamine (25 % bp 175-177 C/0.7 Torr), 6-azido-2,3-dibromobcnzojhjthiophene (1 a, R = R2 = Br) on irradiation in diethylamine in the presence of pyrene, a triplet nitrene quenching agent, yields a mixture of 2,3-dibromo-./V6,./V6-diethyl-benzo[5]thiophene-6,7-diamine (2a, R1 = R2 = Br 13%) and the 8W-thieno[2,3-r]azepine 3a.14<1 Likewise, methyl 6-azidobenzo[6]thiophene-2-carboxylate (lb, R1 = C02Me R2 = H) yields the thienoazepine ester 3b.147... 

The diazotization of heteroaromatic amines is basically analogous to that of aromatic amines. Among the five-membered systems the amino-azoles (pyrroles, diazoles, triazoles, tetrazoles, oxazoles, isooxazoles, thia-, selena-, and dithiazoles) have all been diazotized. In general, diazotization in dilute mineral acid is possible, but diazotization in concentrated sulfuric acid (nitrosylsulfuric acid, see Sec. 2.2) or in organic solvents using an ester of nitrous acid (ethyl or isopentyl nitrite) is often preferable. Amino derivatives of aromatic heterocycles without ring nitrogen (furan and thiophene) can also be diazotized. 

Addition of amines to a,/J-unsaturated sulfones has been used in synthesis of key intermediates of biotin. In this reaction, benzylamine serves first as a base in the reaction with 60 to afford thiophene 1,1-dioxide (61) and also as a nucleophile to introduce two amino groups (equation 57)49. 

Our recent studies on effective bromination and oxidation using benzyltrimethylammonium tribromide (BTMA Br3), stable solid, are described. Those involve electrophilic bromination of aromatic compounds such as phenols, aromatic amines, aromatic ethers, acetanilides, arenes, and thiophene, a-bromination of arenes and acetophenones, and also bromo-addition to alkenes by the use of BTMA Br3. Furthermore, oxidation of alcohols, ethers, 1,4-benzenediols, hindered phenols, primary amines, hydrazo compounds, sulfides, and thiols, haloform reaction of methylketones, N-bromination of amides, Hofmann degradation of amides, and preparation of acylureas and carbamates by the use of BTMA Br3 are also presented. 

Oxidation of thiophene with Fenton-like reagents produces 2-hydroxythiophene of which the 2(570 One isomer is the most stable (Eq. 1) <96JCR(S)242>. In contrast, methyltrioxorhenium (Vn) catalyzed hydrogen peroxide oxidation of thiophene and its derivatives forms first the sulfoxide and ultimately the sulfone derivatives <96107211>. Anodic oxidation of aminated dibenzothiophene produces stable radical cation salts <96BSF597>. Reduction of dihalothiophene at carbon cathodes produces the first example of an electrochemical halogen dance reaction (Eq. 2) <96JOC8074>.
