Participants

Reaction Steps

The compound is produced analogously to Example 1 from 11.4 g. (100 mmol) of 3-methoxythiophene, 45.5 ml. (about 100 mmol) of about 22% butyllithium solution (in hexane), 3.2 g. (100 mmol) of sulfur, and 8.05 g. (100 mmol) of chloroethanol. Bulb tube distillation at 0.04 torr (bath temperature: 118°-129°) yields the alcohol as a slightly yellow oil.
