Reaktionsschritte

In a 5 liter-five-necked flask, 187.3 g (2.23 mol) of thiophene, 300 g (2.23 mol) of n-hexanoyl chloride and 2.7 liter of dry benzene were placed and cooled below 0° C. To the mixture under stirring, 237.9 g (9.13×10-1 mol) of SnCl4 was added dropwise in 1 hour below 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 30 min. below 0° C., followed by stirring for 3.5 hours while being gradually restored to room temperature. After the reaction, 2 liter of 10% HCl was added to the reaction mixture, followed by stirring for 10 min. The separated organic layer was successively washed three times with 500 ml each of 10% HCl, water, 5% Na2CO3 and water, followed by drying with CaCl2 and distilling-off of the solvent to obtain 408 g of a crude product. The crude product was subjected to reduced-pressure distillation in an atmosphere of nitrogen to obtain 313.4 g of a pure product (yield: 77.2%).
