Reaction Steps

A solution of 1.4 g (7.5 mmol) of methyl thiophen-2,5-dicarboxylate in CH2Cl2 (5 ml) is treated with 1.5 ml (18 mmol) thionylchloride and one drop of DMF and subsequently heated at 80° C. for 1 hour. The solvent and excess of thionylchloride are evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue is dissolved in CH2Cl2 (10 ml) and treated slowly with (S)-1-(p-tolyl)ethylamine (1.0 g, 7.4 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 ml) and triethylamin (2 ml, 14.2 mmol). Stirring at rt is continued for 1 additional hour. The product is isolated after acidic work-up and recrystallisation as yellow solid (mp=165° C.) in 71% yield (1.6 g).
