Reaction Steps

A mixture of 20 g (0.2 mole) of 3-thiolen-2-one [R. T. Hawkins, Journal Heterocyclic Chemistry, 11, (3), 291-4 (1974)], 61.1 g (0.2 mole) of 1-bromohexadecane, and 4.8 g (0.2 mole) of sodium hydride in dry benzene is refluxed with stirring for 24 hours after which the solvent is removed and the product distilled to give 2-hexadecyloxythiophene.
