2.9 g of 2-nitrothiophene and 4 g of N-phenylbenzenesulphenamide, dissolved in 10 ml of dimethylformamide, are added dropwise to a stirred solution of 6 g of potassium tert.-butylate in 60 ml of dimethylformamide, while the temperature is kept at about -20° C. The mixture is stirred for a further 15 minutes; then an excess of dilute hydrochloric acid is added to the mixture, after which it is treated in the same way as described in Example 1. The crude product is separated by column chromatography; N-phenyl-5-nitro-2-thienylamine (melting point 186° C., yield 1.8 g, 42%) and N-phenyl-2-nitro-3-thienylamine (melting point 105° C., yield 0.7 g, 15%) are obtained.
