Reaktionsschritte

To a cooled (−70° C.) mixture of thiophene (17.6 g, 0.21 mol) in anhydrous THF (100 mL) was added dropwise a solution of n-BuLi (137.5 ml, 1.6 M, 0.22 mol) in hexane. After stirring for 1 hour at 0° C., the mixture was cooled to −40° C. followed by addition of 1-hexylbromide (0.22 mol). The mixture was slowly heated to r.t. Water (250 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with diethylether (3×150 mL). The combined organic fractions were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The product was purified by means of vacuum distillation. This product was prepared according to the general procedure and obtained as a colourless oil (26.5 g, 75%).
