Participants

Reaction Steps

At 5° to 10° C., 225 g (1.46 mol) of cyclopropyl-2-thienylcarbinol was hydrobromic dripped over a period of 1 hour into 972 ml of 48% strengh hydrobromic acid. The mixture was kept for 2 hours at room temperature, after which the organic phase was separated off and the aqueous solution was extracted three times, each time with 300 ml of dichloromethane. The combined organic phases were washed neutral with dilute sodium hydroxide solution and water, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated down under reduced pressure. There was obtained 322 g (94%, corrected) of crude bromide (GC: 92%). 1H-NMR (250 MHZ, CDCl3): δ=2.65-2.80 (m, 2H), 3.46 (t, 2H), 5.90-6.10 (m, 1H), 6.61 (d, 1H), 6.80-7.00 (m, 2H), 7.14 (d, 1H).
