Reaktionsschritte

Oxygen is passed into a mixture of N-(4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thien-4-yl)acetamide (1.0 g; 5.13 m mole), cobaltous acetate (0.25 g; 1.4 m mole), cobaltous bromide tetrahydrate (0.32 g; 1.1 m mole), isobutyric acid (20 ml) and water (0.2 ml) in a sintered glass funnel fitted with a condenser and thermometer, via the stem of the funnel. The dark brown mixture is oxygenated for 100 minutes at room temperature, then heated briefly to 48° C. After 2 hours and 10 minutes, the mixture is reheated to 50° C. and the flow of oxygen is terminated 2 hours later. The mixture is then worked up as described in Example 1 to attain a 37% yield of the title compound.
