Reaction Steps

6-Bromohexanoyl chloride (2.1 g) and thiophene (0.84 g) were dissolved in benzene (20 ml) and tin chloride (1.3 ml) was added under ice-cooling, which was followed by stirring for 1 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 3.1 g of 6-bromo-1-(2-thienyl)-1-hexanone.
