Reaktionsschritte

4-Trifluoromethoxyacetophenone (4.1 g, 20 mM) and ethyl 2-thiophenecarboxylate (3.1 g, 20 mM) were placed in a 300 ml eggplant type flask, and 100 ml of dehydrated tetrahydrofuran was added thereto. After this mixture was stirred at room temperature, a 60% oil suspension of sodium hydride (1.1 g, 26 mM) was slowly added thereto. Thereafter, the resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 6 hours and allowed to cool to room temperature. After 100 ml of water was added to the reaction mixture under cooling with ice, the reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 1.0 with a concentrated aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid and then extracted with 100 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Thereafter, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 6.2 g of 1-(2-thienyl)-3-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)-1,3-propanedione in an almost quantitative yield.
