Reaction Steps

9.9 g of α-(3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-2-thiophenemethanol dissolved in 300 ml of acetone are treated with 90 g of manganese dioxide and heated under reflux for 4 hours. The manganese dioxide is removed by suction filtration and the filtrate is evaporated. There is obtained 3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrophenyl 2-thienyl ketone of m.p. 102°-104° (from methylene chloride/hexane).
