Reaction Steps

To a solution of thiophene-3-carbaldehyde (10 g, 89.3 mmol) in THF (500 mL) at 0° C. was added ethyl (triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetate (35 g, 100.5 mmol) in portions. After stirring overnight, the reaction mixture was concentrated and purified by column chromatography to give the title compound (13.6 g, 83%).
