To a solution of 3-ethylthiophene (2 g, 17.7 mmol) in ether (20 ml) under N2 at room temp is added butyl lithium, 2.5M in hexane solution (8.15 ml, 21.4 mmol) and the resulting straw coloured solution is heated to reflux for 20 minutes. The resulting cloudy solution is then cooled to room temperature before the slow addition of DMF (2 ml) over 2 minutes and the resulting solution is stirred at room temp for 1 hour. The reaction is quenched with aqueous saturated ammonium chloride (100 ml) and extracted with chloroform (100 ml). The organic layer is washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated to give 4-ethyl thiophene-2-carbaldehyde as a light brown oil (2.48 g).
