Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(2-methylthiophen-3-yl)-1,3-dioxolane (2.30 g) synthesized above in acetonitrile (25 mL) was added N-bromosuccinimide (2.65 g), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 7 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (5% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the title compound (2.15 g, 64%) as a pale-yellow oil.
